Three business processes and the operating model
There are three separate but related business processes that underpin an operating model. These processes may be formal or informal, but they still exist and It is important that any business transformation or business improvement initiative understand the elements of each and the relationship and separation between the three processes. As always, please let me have your questions or comments.
A framework for change management
It can be argued that Change Management does not really exist in its own right. Rather 'Change Management' is the umbrella term for the application of a series of named methodologies, tools, and techniques that support the organisation as it evolves from one operating state into another. This business minute highlights some of the methodologies that I rely on as I assist organisations with their change journey. As always, please let me have your comments.
Production capabilities and the organisational profile
It one thing to employ a specific production capability, and its another thing to ensure the that the organisational profile is aligned with that production capability. This complexity is exacerbated when an organisation employees more than one type of production capability. Can the organisation cope with multiple organisational profiles. As always, please let me have your comments.
Information, Time, and KPI’s
Time is valuable, but not all time has the same value. Further it is impossible to make an informed decision without considering the element of time. To add complexity, not everything can be associated with time. This business minute explores these concepts. As always, please let me have your comments.
Driving change with a call to action
When you talk about change management, what is really meant is that you are asking staff and stakeholders to change their behaviour. This raises the question - change from what to what. The challenge is making sure that the communications are specific on what the new behaviour should be.
