| |
| Member Question:
What methods are available to measure purchasing performance for both buyers and sellers?
My Response:
The challenges associated with quantifying (re measuring) performance extend beyond the mechanisms for capturing the data to include its timely application relative to ongoing real-world decision making.

Why Change Is So Hard
| |
| A single human brain is estimated to have the switching capacity of the entire U.S. telephone network.It can hold up to 100 trillion bits of information, dwarfing the capacity of any computer ever developed yet. But the brain can act as a prison unless we learn how to control it. The brain can, and often does, lick us into automatic perceptions and behaviors that are inaccurate, ineffective, or downright destructive. How the human brain works is worth noting if we want to change.

What Does A CEO Do
| |
| The CEO has three fundamental roles. First, a CEO is a leader. As a leader, the CEO establishes and directs the vision and mission of the team. In this capacity, the CEO is the source of visionary strength of the company and keeps it on a consistent track to achieving the vision. Second, a CEO is a project manager. In this role, the CEO is responsible for directing the operational activities of the company by scheduling the utilization of the company’s resources, including people and capital equipment. The CEO is responsible for establishing and executing the company’s operating plan that is necessary to achieve the company’s objectives. Third, a CEO is a coach, and as such picks the people for the management team and improves the performance of people through ongoing counseling. |

Often it can’t react as quickly as you’d like, either up or down. You have noticed that.

Load Rage
| |
| If you are like most people, you are feeling a greater load of things to do and less time to do them. If this does not describe you, check your pulse, you may be dead!
Although we are all incredibly busy, the fact is that we are still using less of our total capacity than we think. Nobody can sustain working at full capacity for long, but in truth we can manufacture time to help us deal with the load in more productive ways.

Speed Limits Do Not Reflect Your Capacity
| |
| When looking at cars, we all know that speed limits do not really reflect the capacity of how fast our cars can go. They are simply the law of how fast we are allowed to drive without running the risk of getting a ticket. Most of us drive cars with a capacity far beyond what the speed limit is.
The same is true in our lives and the same is true about us.
Most of us have a capacity far beyond the speed limit that we have imposed on ourselves.
Far beyond the speed limit we have put on our business and career.
What happens when we look at our capacity? Start to understand what we can really do. Look at all the talent, ability and gifts God gave us? .
