Wendy,<br>
<br>
Not sure what you meant by 'form', but there is a physical form (very
pedestrian) that I have used to great effect.  We doubled the productivity
of an entire mill in one year, 20 people meeting weekly and concluding with the
following form filled out.  I don't know how to send a form, so am just
describing it verbally, it's very simple.<br>
<br>
sheet of paper, usually 8-1/2 x 11, sometimes easel sized if we wanted to write
more.<br>
<br>
Left hand column, maybe 1 1/2 inches wide headed by the word "WHO"<br>
<br>
Middle column, probably 6 inches in width, headed by "WILL DO WHAT"    
     <br>
<br>
Right hand column, remaining width, usually about 1 inch, headed by "BY
WHEN"<br>
<br>
Very simple.<br>
<br>
Then, in each meeting, the person(s) responsible under "WHO" would
report all their actions and accomplishments and the next steps they were
taking, and answered questions.  Their names could and did appear under
different areas of expertise and responsibility but they reported on all their
named actions as a block.  We finished in 3 hours and the results were out
and posted one hour later for all to see.  26 different spots in the mill
complexes.  Then the teams could see what had been done and what had been
committed to and get busy getting it done.<br>
<br>
Sincerely,<br>
<br>
Paul Everett</span></font><font face=Arial FAMILY=SANSSERIF><span
