Change and Operations Management An ongoing business is never at a standstill and faces numerous and continuous changes in the
business climate (personal, operations, strategy, etc.). The companies that distinguish themselves are those companies that
welcome change, manage it well and like to thrive in it. They expect to be effective in growing their business by mining the opportunities
that change brings. Knowing how to manage change requires that you and your team accept change and have the skills to bring a
successful outcome. If you answer “no” to one or more of the questions below, let's talk about your change/operations management
challenge and how an engagement with us could help. |
Key Questions · Would
your company receive high marks for how it has managed forced and unforced change in the last year? · Do you believe your key leaders know how to adeptly lead your team to the promised land, despite all the resistance you face from
people who are critical to your business success? · Have you prepared your business
for the ultimate change—when you have to go through major growth or downsizing, so that business results are not more significantly
impacted? · Are you confident that you know what parts of your operations are critical
to your success? · Are critical parts of your operation properly resourced and properly
managed? Are you running a cost-effective operation? · Do you know how to optimize
your current use of resources without degrading the quality of your brand? · Do you
and your management have clarity on process, roles, decision-making, alignment and authority? · Are you experiencing improved workflow and better accountability with associated reductions in errors without slipping quality? |
