Identify
Identify and Strengthen Weak Links in Your Company
Really easy to do “work” and improve your company’s site is the weakest link, and before you think about this, I would like to decide a question for you:
What determines the strength of a bicycle chain?
It is true:
Tissue) tension is created?
Or B) he is under load?
Or C) the length of the chain?
Or D) The weakest link?
I’m sure your answer is “D” – the weakest link can always check the strength of a series, because of the weak are key to interrupt and if it breaks to recognize the “totality” of the chain is not necessary. You cannot complete a cycle at any place and cannot achieve its goal of going for a leisurely stroll on your bike.
Now, if we tend to need to create the chain of forts, there would be no reason for adding a lot of material to each of the resilient links, or creating light chains. If we have a tendency to build the cutting chain facilitated by its weight it can have little influence on the strong links and a huge impact on the weakest link.
If you want to create a chain stronger than we would like to introduce and strengthen the weakest link to take the overall improvement of strength within the chain.
Your company is simply a chain, with lots of links, all the time, and return along the neck to reach the selected goal or the result of a bicycle chain and a similar one is the weakest link, and remember a bicycle, this link has been establishes the general strength of the “chain of organization.”
Think of your company / organization and “links” at a time and draw the line on a sheet of paper and label all connections. Will return with the following labels:
- Administration
- Sales
- Promotion
- Manufacture / Delivery of Services
- Analysis and Development
- Human resources (team)
- Customer Service
- Logistics and
- The distribution, etc.
Now look at your channel you want to identify the weak link, you will be able to test this by asking questions such as:
- What is the relationship (region) which prevents us from achieving many of our objectives?
- What we have instead a tendency to constantly experience the problems first?
- How much space is actually limiting our ability to improve?
When you determine your weakest link (and it’s nice to try this with the team), go to questions of ’causes’ during a special space. After finding the “basic reasons,” a choice of brainstorming and then disassemble it to take the necessary measures.
When you count, there are a lot of advantages in focusing your efforts to help get a lot of leads, if the customer service is shabby?
View your organization as a series to determine the weakest link and focus its efforts on strengthening the global amélioration d ‘.
PS After you create a weak link in a robust …… guesses what? Another link in the chain of your organization may currently be the “weakest”. Define it, and follow the same method of interrogation, to continue this, in general, and can significantly improve the business.
