Hi there! Daily huddles can be a great way to get your team on track and to stay focused on important topics, assignments, and key metrics. They are also a great way to build team unity and foster a feeling of collaboration. The key to making daily huddles successful is to keep them concise and focused. Make sure everyone knows the agenda ahead of time and everyone gets a chance to weigh in on the topics. Also, make sure to follow up on any action items on the radar. In a busy medical practice, assignments often are fluid with staff absences, PTO, or LOAs. This google sheet allows your managers and supervisors to update and the changes are sent out immediately reducing multiple drafts. You can share the link or email it to a google label. These are especially handy when your enterprise uses google workspace including google docs, Gmail, and google chat. You can have staff notified automatically when updates to the doc occur. Each day, just copy the prior day's huddle and update where necessary. Finally sharing as a viewer prevent any unauthorized changes when assignments are not to the staff's liking. The base size is legal so that there is ample space at the bottom to highlight anything important to your location or market. Managers can access it from any of their devices. Finally having your huddle pop with color or images keeps it from being routine which I find staff tend to skip over. When you buy this file you will receive a link to the google doc requesting you make a copy and then the template will reside in your google drive. Stay tuned for further templates to complete your collection. Let me take the guesswork out of your daily huddle struggles.
