TripleBottomLine of your Sustainable business
| |
| New York City, where I live, is going through a rough patch these days. As you know, some of Wall Street’s biggest are falling all around us.
Yet it is exactly as it should be. Why?
The market is correcting itself from our unsustainable ways.
Sustainability is really all about the triple-bottom-line: people, profits and planet. Here’s how it applies to New York’s falling giants:
What is your company's triple-bottle-line, in creating a sustainable business. |

Selling In A Gloomy Economy
| |
| What is the difference between selling in a robust economy and selling in a failing economy? A lot. But not what you think.
* Your product is the same
* Your pitch/presentation is the same
* The buyer’s need is the same
What’s different is the decision making process the buyers need to go through. Do they have a problem that needs to be resolved now, and the economy has mitigated the types of solutions they seek? Do they have a problem that can be fixed with a partial, cheaper solution, or with internal resources that can be modified to create a solution? Do they wait until…. until they have some belief that their business won’t be at risk? |

Can a productivity consultant add enough value to justify the fee
| |
| Maybe so, maybe not depending on the project scope and your own resources. This article is a guide to determine how to predict in advance if a consultant will pay for himself / herself, much less create a return in this economy. The key; what resources can you apply, considering your circumstances
In this article, you will observe that I suggest that management must commit itself to receive a payback from a productivity consultant. The more management opens up, to investigation, to consideration of new ideas, to judgment of sacred cows, to re-prioritization, the more useful any consultant can be. If you are willing to commit, let’s talk.
My Amazon book, Cost Reduction How to Survive, Recover, and Thrive, offers examples of practical ideas to effect real cost change.

Do you Suffer from Sand Castle Management? Take this Litmus test.
| |
| With the intellectual economy well upon us, how many corporations do you think still have their heads buried in the proverbial sand castle? Not mine, you say? Don't forget - - competitive advantages of old are no longer the competitive advantages of today. Technology is more easily and quickly duplicated, and by offshore competitors who do it for less.
In days gone by (old industrial economy), a company's greatest assets were their physical and natural resources. Today (new intellectual economy), the biggest competitive advantage is a company's human capital. It's no longer the widget, brand image, or some secret formula. No, what makes one company better than another today is the human capital behind these things. In a recent Harris Study, it was noted that nearly 73% of a company's bottom line is tied to its people asset. |

Are you Re-trenching or Re-imagining
| |
| Rumor has it that the economy is slowly slowly slowly recovering in a few disparate markets. Employment specifically NOT being one of them in any noticeable way. The good news is that no matter the situation we find ourselves, we are getting smarter about how we utilize our resources, especially relationships, education, time, and money. Call it re-imagining. Like many of us, you are likely alternating between the genuine good feeling of wising up about your resources and being paralyzed with fear and indecisiveness, unable to decide what to do, thus doing nothing. This might be defined as re-trenching. Hmm, feel that tightening in your chest? Don't forget to breath. |
