- Resource allocation - are people matched to their skill set?
- Projects - are the projects priorities chosen in a way that helps the company grow, while considering constraints and opportinities?

- Core staff writes a monthly planning and review in their work log - 1. summary of accomplishments, 2. What worked. 3. What didn't. 4. Plan for next month.
- Staff meet with ED once a month for the Project Review
