Building a Competitive Organization by Adopting Discipline

The purpose of this half-day discussion is to explore the everyday organizational pressures to do more with less. Employee and management issues are staggering:

• Overwhelmed and stressed
• Poor time management
• Lack a sense of urgency
• Lack of structure
• Lack of an ACTIVE performance management process
• Lack of professional objectivity in the workplace
• Ineffective communication practices
• Management’s lack of focus on critical HR functions (i.e., performance tracking, 1×1’s, regular staff meetings, etc.)
• Relationship building and collaboration is an afterthought
• Organizational ineffectiveness is adversely affecting the quality of life for your employees.

I discuss the various techniques to achieve efficiency with your workforce. The objectives of my discussion are to:

• Ignite the power of organizational change and drive your organization to the top
• Eliminate destructive organizational practices (inter-office politics, finger-pointing, accountability, etc.)
• Achieve peak performance within the team by adopting discipline
• Gain competitive advantage as a company
• Create a culture of empowerment for your employees
• Release the creative power of your workforce
