Policies, Procedures… and Procrastination
Writing policies and procedures can be a challenge, even for the experienced person. In order for any organization to function properly, policies and procedures need to be accurate, brief, and easy to comprehend. When written correctly, policies and procedures can save time, eliminate frustration, increase efficiency and meet regulatory requirements. This session will incorporate an overall understanding of the process involved to create, review and critique policies and procedures.
