Are You Cheap?
Blog discussion 1-1 with John and/or attend Friday’s 29-minute session 8:30-8:59 am central on April 3rd
Are You Cheap?Do people who know you consider you cheap? Do you hold this as a badge of honor? If so, you are limiting your success.
Why?
Everybody has a frugal (politically correct word for cheap) side. For the sake of this article, let’s call that side “Cheapo.” If Cheapo is making your decisions in life, he is only looking at the cost side of the equation.Thus, he is very prejudiced, judgmental, and limited in what he can see. Cheapo can’t see the value and misses the opportunity because he’s only looking at cost. A former client of mine used to say, “Cheapos jump over dollars to save pennies.”

How to do a Quarterly Company/Department 90/90
Join us April 10th
Keeping Your Team Engaged and Focused
In today’s fast-moving business world, companies need a structured way to assess progress, align stakeholders, and reduce uncertainty. That’s where the Quarterly 90/90 Review comes in—a simple yet powerful approach to reviewing company performance and setting the stage for future success.
Why Conduct a Quarterly 90/90 Review?
Uncertain times can create stress and confusion within an organization. A structured quarterly review helps by:

  • Providing Clarity – Teams and individuals need to know where they stand. Reviewing key issues at the end of each quarter ensures everyone understands the company’s situation.
  • Engaging Stakeholders – This review brings leadership, employees, and other stakeholders together to discuss progress and challenges.
  • Driving Continuous Improvement – By assessing what’s working and what’s not, companies can make better decisions for the next quarter.

How to Conduct an Effective Quarterly 90/90 Review
The structure of the review will vary depending on company size, but it should always include four core questions to guide the discussion. Keeping the process uniform ensures consistency and clear takeaways for all involved.

Live Zoom Session: Join our 29-minute workshop on how to conduct a Quarterly 90/90 Review on Friday, 4/10/26, 8:30 am – 8:59 am Central Time.
