Business Education Series: Creating an Effective Process in 30 Minutes or Less!

We all have processes for doing things, so why should I worry about process? Well, processes define how a business does its business.

Does the business do things in a well-controlled, consistent, reliable and predictable manner?

One that:

Produces a quality customer experience and happy customers?
Provides you with all that you need to easily manage things?
Sets your staff up to be high performers and engaged?
Allows you to scale and grow?

In this BES session we will discuss the basics of process:

What are the trade-offs inherent in designing process?
Where you are on those trade-offs and where do you want to be.
Things to consider when setting up your processes.
Common problem areas and how to handle them.

The session will include exercises to help determine how to take your process to the next level of effectiveness. We will focus on one of your processes to work on. We will look at how it is currently working and what is needed for improvements.

Come prepared with a process that you would like to improve.
