Focus your strategy!
Growing a business is hard work. To succeed, several factors need to come together.
Focused business strategy – Maximizing business objectives by having a defined vision and mission. It defines where the organization is going and how to get there.
Talent optimization – Maximizing business results by optimizing the performance and experience of individuals, teams and organizations
Flawless execution – Maximizing business results by specifically defining and consistently executing processes designed to meet your business strategy.
Many innovative businesses start with a great idea that provides amazing customer value. When the company launches, everyone is focused on the solution/product and the client. Everyone does everything. And, the company succeeds, until:
It grows… and having everyone do everything no longer works
A competitor comes in and offers a solution at a lower cost
You lose focus on your customers and market
You are growing beyond your ability deliver on your customers' expectations.
Have you reach the point where things no longer are working the way you want? If so, it’s time to step back and look at your strategy. Some questions to ask are:
Is this still the correct strategy?
Is our strategy focused?
Have we been sidetracked?
As a leadership team, are we all on the same page?
If you answered “no” to any of these questions, get the leadership team together for a strategy workshop. Get away from the office, make sure your strategy is right and build the business you envision!
