One of the smartest things a business leader can do in their company is post monthly communication letters to employees. Of course now with all the over regulation out there the lawyers will have to look at it to make sure what you are saying is not breaking any laws, but it is a great way to build team work and increase dedication with the employees.

Monthly communication letters are nothing new one famous CEO that does this is Michael Dell of DELL Computers, but also Fed Ex Chairman Fred Smith too and Starbucks Global Strategist Howard Shultz. The President of the United States who very much runs the Oval Office like a Corporate Board Room also has a weekly online email update of what is going on, what was said and an over view of the initiatives slated.

Well if all these folks are doing this in their organizations then isnt it about time you considered this too. You can send the letter to you close long time vendors, your employees and consultant teams to keep them engaged and thinking about what you are doing. You might even find that some of them indeed have experiences in the various endeavors you are planning and thus you will be surprised to find inside knowledge to help you go further faster. So, I would like you to consider this in 2006.
