Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Hello Thank you for allowing me to spend time with you today to engage in an open dialog regarding business sustainability and achieving operational excellence.
  2. The mega trend of Sustainability is built on the foundation of protecting our planet and it’s resources while providing a future for many generations to come. Business sustainability emerged out of the concept of being or going green. Outside pressures from communities, customers and regulations have forced companies to evaluate how their products and services impact the environment. As a result, companies have incorporated sustainable processes throughout their business; the effect a positive impact on their bottom line and a competitive advantage. Sustainability is not a program it is a business strategy that is defined and aligned through your people, processes and the structure of your organization. Sustainability is not just about the ecology; it is about how you increase or deplete your corporate resources to achieve your goals. The question is how can you create a sustainable business? You have to define that for your company.
  3. I’m going to suggest three critical elements in creating a sustainable business. The first is leadership. Leadership is the critical linchpin that hold’s today’s organizations together while preparing it for change. It starts with creating a compelling vision, a vision that inspires, a vision that allows EVERY employee to see how their specific role contributes to the success of the company. Successful leaders are people who are able to achieve the documented desired results. Discuss points and ask for feedback.
  4. The second element in building a sustainable business is change. I’m sure that you have heard the quote “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result,"? Attitude is the most critical component to behavior change and goal achievement. Change is not easy it requires a clear focus and continuous communication to those around you. Most people are resistant to change and would prefer the status quo. Are you a champion of change? Discuss & ask for examples.
  5. The third element to consider is innovation. To thrive in today’s competitive environment innovation should be viewed as an opportunity and not a threat. Do you consider innovation and opportunity or a threat? Discuss ask for input.
  6. Let me tell you a little bit about MARC IT SHARE, who we are and what we do.
  7. As I said earlier we work with clients to help them achieve operational excellence. Our experience is that the best companies are always evaluating their strategies to ensure that they are delivering the best products, services and support to their customers. These firms have aligned their strategies, people and processes “around the customer” enabling them to deliver the best customer experience. As a partner, this is the approach that we utilize to best serve our clients.
  8. Let’s first touch on strategy. Did you know: At least two-thirds of large organizations struggle to implement their strategies – there is huge gap between strategy development and execution. The best laid plans are often diverted due to immediate business needs to drive revenue or resolve internal and external business issues. At MARC IT SHARE we help firms maintain a keen focus on strategies that that will improve growth and performance. Discuss elements.
  9. Human capital has become a major expense for most corporations. Did you know: 1. 70% of employees are dissatisfied with their job 2. Employee disengagement costs the US economy about $350B every year. 3. Disengaged employees cost each employer $3400 - $10,000 in salary What this means is that American businesses are operating a two-thirds of their capacity. Employees that understand your strategy, are clear on their role in aiding corporate success and have the skills to execute are 10 times more likely to perform at higher levels. We can help you measure your organizational effectiveness, employee engagement and what the impact is on your bottom line. D.I.AL.O.G is our organizational assessment tool. It provides information as to how well the elements of your organization are working together to achieve your strategic business goals. It measures the interrelationships of the essential elements that become predictors of future strength. Our individual assessment tools include: The Attribute Index is a personal assessment tool that provides information as to how a person thinks and makes decisions-what natural talents he or she possesses. By understanding the way in which a person thinks, it becomes possible to leverage that knowledge and make better decisions, maximize strengths, minimize weaknesses, and achieve greater results personally and organizationally. The DISC Index measures a person’s natural and adaptive behavioral styles, which is crucial when working with team members, as a leader or a manager, or in the environment that requires conflict resolution. By understanding how you prefer to behave, you can better align your environment, and select the work that ensures more meaningful success while producing less stress. The Values Index delivers the most comprehensive understanding of a person’s value or motivational structure. Understanding what motives or drives a person is a crucial part of success. It is this understanding that helps to ensure that optimal motivation, passion, and drive are always created to achieve the highest levels of personal and professional success. By utilizing these tools we can help you measure employee effectiveness and determine the financial impact on your bottom line.
  10. Embracing change and innovation will help you outperform and outlast the competition. Did you know: 1. Your processes should make you unique and create a competitive advantage – it’s the reason customers prefer to do business with you. 2. The methods that you use in your business create your culture – it helps in building teams. 3. Your supply chain is critical to your business. By reducing waste, increasing quality, and improving performance you can become the preferred supplier. At MARC IT SHARE we believe that continuous process improvement should be integrated into your strategy. How efficiently and effectively you deliver your products, services and support to your customers has a major impact on creating a truly sustainable business. Are you focused on continuous process improvement? Give me an example
  11. Sustainability as a strategy is key to continuous business viability. It’s imperative that you have the leadership skills, are open to change and embrace innovation to thrive in today’s competitive environment The alignment of your strategy, people and processes “around your customers” will better position you against the competition. A compelling vision, the best skills, keenly focused on strategy execution will allow you to achieve improved business results. Are you ready to unleash your organization’s optimal growth?
  12. What’s keeping you up at night? What are your symptoms? Summarize any areas of concern discussed during the presentation and set up a follow on meeting to dig deeper.
