• Purpose/Mission/Objectives
• Definition – Defining the who, the what and the how
• Leadership and Teamwork – This generally determines success or failure
• Systems – Ensuring that all necessary systems are in place and working properly
• Results – Assessing the quantity, quality, cost and timeliness of the work

Tom has built his career on building effective business organizations by living each of these critical components.
