Our four step process delivers a customized management
system that our clients have used to embed a culture of high performance. I. Competency Assessment With well tested tools we provide an assessment of the
organization’s level of competency to adopt a high performance management
system. This assessment shows the current state as well as defines the desired
future state in three areas:
1. Organizational Readiness 2. Use of data to drive strategy 3. Execution Capability for data driven initiatives across silos to the front line
II. Roadmap Working with leadership we develop a three to five year Roadmap
to achieve the desired future state, including resource and investment
requirements. A detailed execution plan is developed for the first year and the
Roadmap updated annually to align with vision and strategy.
III. Metrics and Analytics We bring over 20 years of experience in non-financial
metrics and data driven analyses to select measures and analytics required to
support your vision and strategy. We create a framework to enable leaders to differentiate
between mission critical data versus ‘distractions’ so they develop the competency
for using measures and analytics to drive strategy.
IV. Execution Blueprint We facilitate the development of an action blueprint for the
top strategic priorities. While the strategy and initiatives are driven by
leaders, the execution blueprint is developed using a ‘bottoms up’ approach. A
typical plan includes:
Engaging the Organization: Through
a series of workshops and interactive sessions, we create a broad based
understanding and support within the organization for the strategic
priorities as well as the tools selected by leaders to drive the strategy. Implementation Maps: We create
working groups to review existing workflows critical to the implementation
of strategic priorities and identify the required modifications. Governance Structure: We define
the role for executive sponsors. We define system management needs –
including resources and processes to ensure continuous improvement and
alignment to vision and strategy. We also provide a recommendation for integration
with key management processes i.e. strategic planning, operating plans,
compensation and rewards, capital expenditures.
