Working as an Employee can be frustrating and at times seems pointless without direction and reward for success. Many Organisations, who do not share with their workers their aspirations and drive for success, reward their workers with yet another Dull Day in what has been a Dull Week, Month and Year. The Grey and Dull environment percolates through the business reaching the very top and very bottom of the company.
In contrast an Organisation that states it’s Goals, articulates its Strategy and the Value it intends to deliver to its Customers, Suppliers, Workers and Investors is Bright and Shines. It is a self motivating environment that touches all who come into contact with it. This way of thinking is what motivated me to focus on Business Performance, and by way the term Business can be substituted for all the things we do that can be improved upon. The focus on performance, eliminates waste, it questions product introduction strategies that threaten our environment, health and the future of this planet. It provides stability, sufficient financial reward and a community pride in our collective work environment. By training to optimise performance you are bringing value to your organisation and community you serve. There is no better thing to do!
All employees, Stakeholders and Owners have a right to know the goals, objectives and the delivery strategy. That said if the organisation does share its insights with you then be prepared to take ownership of your positions contribution to the success of the plan.
Currently as previously stated I am working on new project in Malta. I am learning a lot from the project, and from the cultural changes of working in a new country. That aside I am confident I can make a difference and will strive to deliver what I have employed to do. What I am enjoying most at the moment is that it’s give a me a great opportunity to investigate new Business Process Tools and some of the more well known Open Source Workflow Management systems. Of the next few weeks I will share some of this experience with you.
In the mean time, think positive, think performance, think I want to be measured and rewarded for contributing to the success of the organisation or project. Back soon
