This is the version of my talk that was presented at the 2017 Conduit conference for the STC PMC chapter. Every techcomm project includes a series of meetings. Requirements gathering and status updates are a necessary part of every project. But attending a meeting means that team members are not making progress on tasks or deliverables. How can we ensure that we make the most of this necessary evil? This presentation will offer proven solutions for meeting management. Starting up front with an engaging icebreaker, gathering expectations about what should be accomplished during the meeting, and then collecting feedback at the end will make your meeting more effective and your team more productive. This presentation will be interactive and engaging. Come prepared to participate, share, laugh, and interrupt. Bring it on!

Customers are becoming more demanding and accustomed to getting what they want. With greater access to reviews and online rating, customers are better equipped to switch to new products and services. Consumers now want to buy products and services when, where, and however they like. They expect companies to interact with them seamlessly, in an easy, integrated fashion with very little friction across channels. As customer expectation continue to evolve â€“ accelerated by the amplifying forces of interconnectivity and technology â€“ markets are becoming increasingly fragmented with demand for greater product variety, more price points, and numerous purchasing and distribution channels. Companies should be able to adapt to these increasingly disparate demands quickly and at scale. Staying close to the customer experience across an increasingly diverse customer base changing over time is no longer a matter of choice. It is a business imperative and a matter of corporate survival. The Age of the Customer now calls for companies to be a customer-centric company. Successful ones have discovered that building a customer-centric company depends, first and foremost, on building a Customer-centric Culture. This framework focuses on the building a Customer-centric Culture utilizing the Corporate Culture Framework. The Corporate Culture Framework is anchored on 4 Primary Cultural Attributes and 4 Secondary Cultural Attributes. The 4 primary Cultural Attributes are critical in building a Customer-centric Culture. 1. Collective Focus 2. External Orientation 3. Change and Innovation 4. Shared Beliefs Customer-centric organizations also project 4 secondary Cultural Attributes. 1. Risk and Governance 2. Courage 3. Commitment 4.

In order to emerge triumphant through this tumultuous challenge, it is necessary that the focus remains on the challenges impeding the organization, Strategy Development to tackle the challenges, and prioritizing Strategic Initiatives to deliver radical results that lead the organization to Operational Excellence. Redeployment is the most significant phase in the Restructuring process. Within Redeployment, the Assessment phase is critical as the revitalization of the whole organization is dependent on correct Assessments and right placement of employees based on those Assessments. Proper Redeployment Assessment Management is of utmost importance in Restructuring, and it should follow a structured approach, which means managing 5 core areas: Manage Assessment Team Manage Anxiety Level of Candidates Manage Amount of “Deviant Behavior” in the Assessments Manage Level of Duplicity, Wild Guessing, and Other Forms of Distortion Manage Amount of Feedback and Its Timing after the Event Managing 5 core areas ensures smooth implementation of the Redeployment Assessment process, which is a major milestone of the Restructuring project. The Redeployment Assessment process has to be detailed, accurate, and prompt. Due Diligence in documenting the process, verifying particulars, and balance between Rapidity and Accurateness is essential because: Organizational requirement to concentrate on post-restructuring environment is intense. Employees’ urge to swiftly find out about their future is deep-seated. Objections by employee stakeholders, as a consequence of large-scale retrenchment is high. Probability of legal recourse by employees is also distinct. Future Employee Engagement is dependent on fair Assessment and correct placements.

Market leaders choose to excel in delivering extraordinarily levels of one particular value to their customers. This way they can remain focused and become the absolute best in a certain value proposition. Gaining market and Operational Excellence requires that the company's entire Operating Model be adapted in a way this it is aligned with the chosen Value Discipline. A Value Discipline is a unique value that organizations can deliver to a chosen market. The Value Discipline Principle is in line with Porter's Generic Strategies, where Michael Porter describes how companies gain Competitive Advantage by either focusing on low cost, differentiation, or a niche market. This presentation discusses the Value Disciplines Model and the 3 Value Disciplines organizations must choose from. 1. Operational Excellence 2. Product Leadership 3.

This article breaks the full Strategic Planning and Execution processes into 3 sections: Strategic Planning Strategy Development Strategy Execution For each section, we will highlight important concepts core to the topic, as well as direct you to important resources for further understanding. 1. Strategic Planning Per Wikipedia, we can define Strategic Planning as: Strategic Planning is an organization’s process of defining its strategy, or direction, and making decisions on allocating its resources to pursue this strategy. It may also extend to control mechanisms for guiding the implementation of the strategy. Strategic Planning became prominent in corporations during the 1960s and remains an important aspect of strategic management. It is executed by strategic planners or strategists, who involve many parties and research sources in their analysis of the organization and its relationship to the environment in which it competes. Strategic Planning is a crucial process, but often poorly executed, leading to poor translation from Strategy to Execution. In most organizations, executives complain that their Strategic Planning is overly bureaucratic, insufficiently insightful, and doesn’t accommodate today’s rapidly changing, digital markets. To combat these issues, there are a few best practices we should follow: Explore Strategy across 3 time horizons. Encourage productive and stimulating Strategic Dialogue. Engage a broad, decentralized group of stakeholders. Let’s dive a little deeper into each of these best practices. Explore The 3 time horizons we want to explore can be defined as short term (1-year timeframe), medium term (3–5 years timeframe), and long term (5+ years). Each horizon is uniquely considered and has different objectives.

More Information: https://flevy.com/browse/flevypro/theory-of-constraints-1883 The Theory of Constraints (TOC) is a methodology for identifying the most important limiting factor — i.e. constraint — and systematically improving it. It was developed by Dr. Eliyahu Goldratt, introduced in 1984 book, The Goal. TOC differs from traditional management views, in that traditional methods seek to make improvements throughout the organization. They divide the organization into smaller, more manageable pieces. The objective, thus, is to maximize the performance of each part, resulting in global improvement. On the other hand, TOC takes a more focused approach. Instead of improving everywhere, the TOC approach seeks only to improve the few variables (or constraints) that have the largest impact on the organization’s performance. By trying to improve everything everywhere, the risk is that nothing will be improved that really counts. TOC follows the adage “a chain is no stronger than its weakest link.” An interesting phenomenon about chains is that strengthening any link except the weakest one does not improve the strength of the whole chain. Strengthening the weakest link produces an immediate increase in the strength of the whole chain, but only up to the level of the next weakest link. There are 3 types of constraints that exist in an organization: Capacity Constraint. This constraint occurs when a resource which cannot provide timely capacity as demanded by the system. Market Constraint. This is when the amount of customers orders is not sufficient to sustain the required growth of the system. Time Constraint. This occurs when the response time of the system to the requirement of the market is too long to the extent that it jeopardizes the system’s ability to meet its current commitment to its customers as well as the ability of winning new business.

Reason this area has gone under the radar is that companies do not consider Supply Chain to be their core competency. Not only Warehousing but Transportation also has almost the same potential in terms of opportunities for Cost Reduction and Process Improvement. The approach to Transportation Costs Reduction, though, is different to that of Supply Chain Cost Reduction in Warehousing. This is in part due to the complexity in Transportation Costs, as the costs come from numerous widely distributed individual operations every year.

There is no doubt that everyone can be a leader, but not everyone can be a genius leader. Leadership is far limited to prestige, a high status, or to financial abundance; it is neither about authority nor power. Leadership starts when you go beyond the self to serve and empower others.

To succeed in today’s fiercely competitive market, organizations need to invest in developing their leadership, such that they further develop their teams by training them on the desired competencies and create a sense of engagement in them. A big challenge for leaders is getting their employees to believe in the organizational vision. No two personalities have the same viewpoints and aspirations, thus conflict is bound to occur between team members while they interact. The Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument (TKI), developed by Dr. Ralph H. Kilmann and Dr. Kenneth W. Thomas, is an easy-to-use, online assessment tool to Conflict Management. Human Resources (HR) and Organizational Design (OD) consultants utilize the TKI tool as a mechanism to initiate discussions on differing topics and facilitate in mediation by learning how conflict-handling modes affect personal, group, and organizational dynamics. Each of us has a predominant conflict style that we use in a particular situation. The Thomas-Kilmann Conflict Mode Instrument provides a basis to measure a person’s behavior in conflict situations, where individuals appear to be unable to get along. The individuals’ behavior in conflict situations encompasses 2 broad dimensions: Assertiveness Cooperativeness These behavior dimensions define 5 predominant conflict handling styles (or modes) that we use while responding to conflict situations: Competing Accommodating Avoiding Collaborating Compromising Got a question about this presentation?

Therefore, losing an important customer can have detrimental effects on the organization. The significance of key accounts is urging top B2B companies to revisit their key account management approaches. Additionally, the increasing level of sophistication of the purchase process being adopted — such as, centralized procurement, competitive bidding and auctions, and laborious negotiations — by large buyers is a crucial element for B2B companies to consider to win large accounts. Studies have shown that large buyers suggest price, product features, and reliability as the most important factors in their purchasing decisions, even more so than sales and service experience. However, detailed analysis of data into the actual purchasing decisions by buyers reveal that suppliers’ service and support capabilities mean a lot to large purchasers — in fact, almost as equal in importance as price. Large buyers often involve senior team members in procurement, which necessitates the need for inclusion of people possessing high-quality management and sales skills while serving key accounts. With more intensifying sophistication of the procurement process at large businesses in future, the buyers will keep trying to cut costs and gain significant advantage while negotiating with procurement. The suppliers, in turn, can create a win-win situation by providing first-rate key account support and service. Leading suppliers utilize the 4 drivers of growth to develop best-in-class key account management practices and increase their large contract win ratios.

More Information: https://flevy.com/browse/flevypro/nudge-theory-key-challenges-3895 Changing the behaviors of people is the foremost issue with every transformation initiative. Nudge theory is a novel Change Management model that underscores the importance of understanding the way people think, act, and decide. The model assists in encouraging human imagination and decision making, and transforming negative behaviors and influences on people. The approach helps understand and change human behavior, by analyzing, improving, designing, and offering free choices for people, so that their decisions are more likely to produce helpful outcomes for the others and society in general. Nudge theory helps reform existing (often extremely unhealthy) choices and influences on people. The theory is quite effective in curtailing resistance and conflict resulting from using autocratic ways to change human behavior. The model promotes indirect encouragement and enablement — by designing choices which encourage positive helpful decisions — and avoids direct enforcement. For instance, playing a ‘room-tidying’ game with a child rather than instructing her/him to tidy the room; improving the availability and visibility of litter bins rather than erecting signs with a warning of fines. Organizations are increasingly using behavioral economics to optimize their employee and client behavior and well-being. Nudge units or behavioral science teams are being set up in the public and corporate sectors to influence people to address pressing issues. For instance, to increase customer retention by changing the language of support center staff to motivate customers to consider long-term benefits of a product; or to make employees to follow safety procedures by placing posters of watching eyes to remind them of the criticality of the measure. An effective Nudge initiative necessitates much more than deploying a few experts in heuristics and statistics. The senior leadership should lay out a conducive environment for successful behavioral transformation. This entails assisting the Nudge unit to focus, place it appropriately, create awareness, train and de-bias people, implement effective rewards, and follow high ethical standards. The leadership needs to think about and prepare to tackle 6 key challenges Nudge units face when implementing effective behavioral transformation initiatives: What should be the focus of the Nudge unit? Should the Nudge unit be placed at the headquarters or at the business unit level? Which resources be made part of the Nudge unit? What are the critical success factors to consider for the unit? How to communicate the results and early wins? What should be done to tackle skepticism and resistance to change? Got a question about this presentation? Email us at support@flevy.com.

In business terms, it’s the capability of a system to enhance productivity upon resource augmentation. Scalability provides an organization the capabilities to develop compelling value propositions — that are hard to imitate by the rivals — and achieve profitable growth even in the wake of external threats, cut-throat competition, stringent laws, or financial downturns. Today’s challenging business ecosystems and economic outlook demand from the enterprises to develop novel and Scalable Business Models that are able to leverage positive returns on investments. To accomplish this, leaders need to identify and eradicate any capacity issues, enhance collaboration with existing partners, build new partnerships, or develop platforms to work with their opponents. Executives should invest in scaling options only when they are sure to boost returns. They have to be quick to exit a business when returns on investment to scale backfire. 5 Patterns of Business Model Scalability Benchmarking a number of successful organizations reveals that their Business Models were flexible enough to sustain internal and external pressures. Business Model Scalability hinges on aligning the strategic partners and Value Propositions to serve the customers. To drive Business Model Innovation (BMI), leading organizations consistently display 5 critical patterns of Business Model Scalability: Operate with multiple distribution channels Eliminate typical capacity limitations Outsource capital investments to partners Allow customers and partners assume multiple roles in the business Create platform models Got a question about this presentation?

The purpose of a company is undergoing Business Transformation from serving the interest of shareholders to serving all stakeholders that influence the organization. Shareholders are often considered the only stakeholders that invest in a business. Senior management needs to be cognizant of the importance of shareholders as well other stakeholders who create value for the organization. They should work on building a collaborative Organizational Culture and paying heed to the welfare of all those groups that play a role in organizational growth. This warrants a thorough evaluation of all stakeholders, their long-term interests, and Value Creation — or Value Destruction — potential for the organization. But first, this calls for finding answers to the following key questions: Who creates the most value for the organization? Who among the stakeholders typically secure the best deals from the organization? Who is the victim of having the worst deals from the organization? Who among the stakeholders is potentially untrustworthy? Are there any intermediaries or stakeholders fulfilling their personal agendas? Answering these questions is critical for the executives, otherwise they may risk falling into Shareholder Value Traps. Recognizing and understanding stakeholder value traps while the managing stakeholders’ various interests helps executives achieve shared and individual long-term goals. These 5 common traps prevent stakeholders’ interests to get integrated with the interests of the organization and destroy the value of a company if overlooked: Ignoring cash-flow driving stakeholders while distributing cash Miscalculating reaction from stakeholders Supporting under-performing units Conceding to willful vulture capitalists Misjudging intermediaries role in transactions Got a question about this presentation?
