Lemon Squeezy

With the demand we have had lately for more journeys, so too has there been increased demand for more drivers. Therefore, projects I have been working on as the MD have been put on hold. The immediate priority has been coping with the growth we have rather than chasing more of it.
It has been good for me personally to be distracted this way because I have seen that the new projects I was starting were all on my own as a single entity within DrivenByQ. On reflection I recognise that expecting people to follow the plans I was developing was a little misguided.
Objectivity can be such a bonus. It puts things in perspective and provides clarity. As soon as the Christmas rush is out of the way, what we need is to draw up a business plan as a team. This is so everyone has buy-in to the next stage of development and so everyone can make a contribution.
This way, when the plan is in effect, the energy and enthusiasm comes from every member of the team and it can be felt by our customers much more passionately. Just like an army of believers disseminating their message! With that commitment throughout DrivenByQ why would any customer want to be with anyone else?
