Thanks for your interest.Part One in a Five Part Series Imagine what a professional football team would be like without a regimen of practice drills? Now take away their playbook and player statistics. What you have in this extreme scenario are highly talented (and perhaps overpaid) individuals participating in organized chaos. They might actually win a game or two, but in long run, this team is doomed. Management Policy I offer this illustration to drive home point of why any organization needs to examine existence and effectiveness of its management systems. If there are weaknesses or holes in your documented procedures (playbook), or benchmark measurements (stats), then you will want to take corrective action. Process Phases It is my experience that when a company attempts to establish its management systems for first time, it takes longer than expected, involves more people than planned, and grows in complexity. To control this trend, I advocate dividing process into five (5) distinct phases, each with clear objectives: 1. Discovery 2. Planning 3. Development 4. Implementation 5. Rediscovery In this series, we will take a look at each phase. So this week, let’s take a look at Discovery phase.
