2. Jeff Stauring was trained early in his career to
succeed through continuous improvement. He
offers the same progressive and modern
ideals to every business he coaches. Jeff says
that the key to success for all enterprises is to
continuously improve upon products or
services. He reinforces continuous
improvement because it is what keeps
businesses in profit and results in new and
improved products.
3. To illustrate the concept clearly, he offers the
example of products like cell phones, iPods,
or laptops, which were all developed and
then improved over the years. Continuous
improvement not only results in new products
but more importantly it leads to reduced costs
therefore making products more affordable.
Product affordability results in higher
standards of living as well as satisfaction for
the end user.
4. He further says that one only needs to look at
some of the most successful people in the
world and the one common theme to their
success would be continuous improvement.
Think about the most successful business
people in the world such as Henry Ford,
Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Jack Welch, and
Richard Branson. Think about the most
successful performers in the world Cher,
Elton John, Billie Joel, and The Rolling
Stones. Think about the most successful
athletes in the world Mohammad Ali, Michael
Phelps, and Serena, Venus Williams.
