My Planner
My Planner is a Microsoft Excel tool that can be downloaded and used to build a list of actions around the people issues on your farm.
Use the Live Library and People Analysis tool to decide on the issues you need to act on and the priority of the actions you want to take. As you consider each issue you can build it into your planner.
