Lead-Communicate-Profit

LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLES:

1-People need to know. Inform staff about financial results, successes, challenges and strategies. Trust them to use this information to make good decisions in their work every day.

2-A picture is worth a thousand words. Visuals, colours, graphs and numbers communicate to all employees, even those for whom English is not their first language. Everyone must be able to understand and participate in achieving company goals.

3-Continuously look for ways to improve. Identify systems that need to be changed, challenge assumptions, question operations, try doing things differently and track the results. Clean up messes, deal with poor performance, think of creative solutions and celebrate achievements.

KEYS TO COMMUNICATION:

1-If it’s worth saying, it’s worth saying three times, three ways.

2-People taking personal responsibility for getting the information they need and given the freedom to share that information makes for a dynamic workplace.

3-Be direct, be honest, celebrate the successes and fix the failures, then move on.

PROFITABILITY PRINCIPLES:

1-Identify and eliminate wasted time, talents, space, money, resources, materials and opportunities.

2-Identify and streamline those functions that add value, improve quality, increase revenue and shorten throughput time.

3-Contain and control inventory, keep things moving, clean up messes, sell it rather than store it.

4-Choose to be unique. Invest in innovation and you will have no competition.
