This is the well-understood axiom of the business world that there are two ways to improve the bottom line of the business. We will strive to make money and reduce costs for inquiries. Businesses now have no cost cutting the way to profitability. But the same token will eat in any business with excessive internal cost of waste, and other profits will look forward to that business. So to rise in a highly competitive business environment, you need to adopt both methods.
When those eyes turn to cost reduction of the business, that the owners of the business find out the important bleeding of the revenue that is happening in the system doing business so that those systems improve to eliminate that waste If you can do so, the business's overhead costs will fall so dramatically, so
The usual advance of such cost saving campaigns by businesses is to find "low hanging fruits" first. That means that in order to meet the demands of management, middle managers identify superficial savings, hoping to meet that requirement. Hence the conversion from disposable cups to mugs or breaks in the comfort of the room often go first on the chopping block.
Sadly, there may be some superficial savings found in such places, but finding these "money pits" within the business of any business lie efficiency at a deeper level The method is often referred to as "process improvement." The concept of process improvement figures out a specific business process from start to finish, passes through the stages it passes through, transfers process authority, and is inefficient
In general, the areas of the business structure that are most often cited as candidates for process improvement review are:
* Extra overhead between departments. The department within the business is notorious for taking on the atmosphere of the fiefdom and is unsuspecting of other departments of the same company that becomes resistant. When it happens, the manager of the department will work to move on to his / her department from another, or for work completed to follow along their path. This excessive overhead, departmental level Can be costly and may stall the business as a unit sufficient to actually reduce the profitability of the organization
* Communication issues. As an organization that moves business processes, it is the work until the end of processing of added value of each department or company. However, if there is a defect in the communication between departments and people along the process chain, the process is interrupted and a missing communication is found, which slows down and can not communicate in a drain company. In order to correct the problem, modern tools of communication should be reviewed so each important person along the chain needs to be done soon and the following
* Inefficient IT infrastructure. Obsolete computer programs that are not integrated with each other take data from one system and move it to the next computer program Standardization and integration of data and systems brings great efficiency to the process.
By rationalizing the process of transitioning business requirements from start to conclusion, eliminating much of the inefficiencies and waste inherent in that process by introducing the latest integrated design at both the IT level and the process level You can quickly migrate processes from one department to the next. The result is no longer a "bleeding money" because of inefficiency, and a streamlined organization where such things are "completely" making money.
Looking for cheese
With all the business books now, the business world comes along with its revolutionary on how to show the area of focus. Such a book had an interesting title "Who Moved my Cheese" by Spencer Johnson. This short book, illustrated as a children's story, has a profound idea that is fundamentally how every business approaches the market. It is the book that has the greatest influence on helping the displaced employee to see changes in their work. But the idea of "who moved my cheese" could affect virtually any business transaction.
This book tells you that the mouse of the message call will lose his cheese at this location. Greedy with greedy keeping the cheese in the same place as keeping the mouse friends. But the protagonist of the story finds a new place for his cheese. Not only is he surprised by the bounty when he finds his new source of cheese, but also his friend after saying his friend of the new source of cheese
This is clearly not a story about the location of the cheese. It is a parable of how to handle changes. The core value is taught that "the move of people can not say that my cheese" and answer, further, our supply for the same resources Market dry up, business go by lean, good people The income stream changes.
But one thing is for sure. There is always a new reservoir of funds somewhere in some of the markets. And sensible business foresees market changes ahead, move with the cheese where to find the money and find new sources of rich funding
It's more than just barking about searching for new jobs. However, it sheds light on the plight of the unemployed. So often that someone who loses work awaits their old work to rent them, or that the industry is under economic pressure of searching for identical work in very similar companies If, or if the industry's business paradigm has changed dramatically, once credible funding and employment In short, cheese has moved.
The company that learned to be adaptable in this changing market and changed to follow the change to the new source of "cheese" is a company that will survive the decade after a decade. The food industry has seen such changes. Many grocery chains have gone belly waiting for cheese to return to the old paradigm. However, we saw the penetration of other large discount stores such as Wal-Mart and there needs to be an unexplored market to cope with that change or who such a dramatic change has driven their cheese Other industries that were forced to find companies, the record industry and so heavily internet sales
Are left to these operators. And if they are aggressive and able to adapt and change to the market, we continue to look for new sources of "cheese", so a good example for all of us
