Special Offer: August and September!
MiscellaneousPublished August 3, 2011 at 3:12 am 1 CommentAs you probably already know, I formed “Successant” to consult with business leaders as to successful strategy (organization, department, product and market), managerial decision-making and successful delivery of organizational changes. Shortly thereafter, I was asked by a key client to join their executive team, while also agreeing to my maintenance of “Successant”.
In the ensuing years, I‘ve enjoyed the best of both worlds: opportunities to experience diversity in organizational contexts through consulting and to apply and hone my consulting principles in the heat of managing daily operations. The two worlds truly refine each other nicely!
Through this process of refinement, I’ve developed several new successfully tested consultative offerings:
- Business Strategy: Specific and action oriented, not platitudes and generalities
- Metrics in Full: A refreshing approach to meaningful decision metrics
- Effective Executive Oversight: How to develop a high-performing Executive team
(More information on each of these offerings is provided below)
I’m now looking for 1 or 2 clients with whom to partner in August and September to deliver these offerings in a focused, consolidated manner. Here’s the deal, I will offer substantial discounts (even up to 40%-50% off already revolutionary ”Personalized Pricing” model) in exchange for:
- A quick decision and contract (after all August is already upon us and, this IS a killer discount)
- The right to include the engagement as a reference in marketing the new solution offering
- Of course, my “success guarantee” is always structured in (talk about an easy ROI calculation!).
Now, for a bit more about each of the 3 new offerings:
Business Opportunity Strategy Model
For a term so commonly used, “Strategy” is parroted in business talk with about as much meaning as Lewis Caroll’s famous “Jabberwocky”. The Successant “Business Opportunity Strategy” model is defined, well grounded and provides a clear framework for the development, assessment and performance monitoring of Strategy at any organizational level: corporate, departmental, market, product , sales and major clients accounts.
Successant’s “Business Opportunity Strategy” Model will equip you and your team with a new-found excitement about Strategy because you’ll understand what it is, why it matters and how to define it as never before. Successant will work with your team to execute upon your Strategy and deliver amazing results both immediately and over the longterm horizon where change yields exponential results quarter over quarter.
Metrics in Full
To borrow a phrase: Lies, damn lies and metrics! This pretty much sums up how most managers feel about business metrics. The apparent wisdom of soberly managing based upon “objective” data seems unassailable. Yet most business metrics models live an anemic life in the feeble attempt of sacrificing managerial experience and intuition before the hollow altar of “objectivity”. Successant’s “Metrics in Full”, part of Successant’s “Managerial Performance Pyramid”, offers a much more practical approach to the topic and empowers managers with the tools required to integrate business metrics into a practical approach that enhances the earned skills of management rather than constraining them.
Successant will walk your team through an energetic and interactive hands-on workshop on business metrics and decision processes. The value will be immediately evident as participants emerge with defined decision points ripe for informed determination and a complete framework of meaningful business metrics to support the decision process. Successant can then partner with your team to help drive further decision support until the principles and processes are well honed and self-supporting within your team.
Effective Executive Oversight
Organizations consist of diverse departments with myriad people, each with unique personality and skills – all of whom must often work in coordination to accomplish something meaningful. This amalgam doesn’t organize into a symphony by mere dictate. It requires a practiced team of leaders who share the pursuit of a common outcome and the constraints of a common business culture. Successant helps organizations build the awareness, processes and culture necessary to maintain a healthy, productive and profitable system of managerial oversight or governance.
Successant’s service for “Effective Executive Oversight”, part of Successant’s “Managerial Performance Pyramid” facilitates your team in designing a governance program perfectly tailored to the unique goals, mission and challenges of your organization. Once designed, Successant will assist your team in implementing the program, including coaching the team through the first several cycles.
I am excited about these success solutions, because I use them myself to gain tremendous results in organizational performance and I’ve seen them transform the operational performance of my clients. As always, my “Personalized Pricing” model means we can work together to understand your goals and budget. From there we’ll identify the right level of service to deliver results that meet your satisfaction, according to my “Success Guarantee”.
