There are things you can do within your project that have proven value to increase results. You can even leverage the proven Gallup organization’s “Q12”. The Q12 is a list of 12 questions that every organization needs to ask workers to ensure they are committed to the organization and giving 100% every day.
 
One question that is useful to your project is, “Do you know what is expected of you at work?” It’s a simple but insightful question. Ask this question of your workforce and you may be surprised at the answers. Large groups may be unclear at any time because of schedule changes, major design changes, corporate strategy announcements, internal IT organizational initiatives, and a host of other possibilities.
 
A more proactive move, however, would be for you to immediately clarify expectations at any significant change or announcement. This will keep everyone from questioning their efforts and becoming unfocused.
