Change Management
People sometimes think that if you’ve been in the business world for ten plus years, you’ve got all the answers. You know what it takes to manage your employees, manage your financial accounts, and run your business smoothly.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT METHODOLOGY
Every Professional Services organization should have a Project Management Methodology that is used by their staff, in partnership with their clients, to manage all project activities for the client organization. This methodology SHOULD NOT advocate cookie cutter solutions. Because each project is different to some degree, project teams and clients must be flexible and innovative to ensure the project management process is tailored to the size and complexity of the project, as well as being sensitive to changes in technology, resources, and the business environment. The methodology SHOULD, however, provide a context within which each project will be managed. It also establishes minimum documentation and reporting requirements, which are scaled to the size and complexity of the project.

Orchard Growth Partners is rolling out a flexible planning and budgeting methodology which allows companies to prepare flexible and layered budgets.

Don't Quit Planning During Uncertain Times
The wise person will always plan for change and through change. The leader’s role needs to be one of keeping the organization true to the overall mission and vision of the organization while at the same time always being aware of changes on the horizon which could enhance or threaten the organization’s success in the future and, in the end, steering the organization through those changes. Plans today must be much more adaptable and flexible to change and more inclusive of others and their opinions if they will succeed; but plans must be made that serve to move the organization forward.

Any time, any place, anywhere
Flexible working is normally conceived as working part time, compressed hours or starting earlier/finishing later.

The Power of Deciding
I believe and have often said that we are all one quality decision away from anything we want. A quality decision is a certain state of mind. It is not the process of deciding to try, attempt, or pursue something until it becomes difficult. A quality decision means that you have firmly set your course. You are no longer flexible on your mission; however, you may be flexible on your method.
