What is one tool you recommend that has helped business leaders and teams be more effective and accomplish their goals?
It’s very common to hear of managers that are maxed out and unable to accomplish the tasks needed to achieve success. This situation may result in poor employee performance, missed project deadlines, or unsatisfactory business profits.
As a business consultant and executive advisor, I provide guidance and the tools needed to overcome obstacles that are hindering individuals and organizations from accomplishing their objectives.
One such tool that has resulted in great successes for my clients is Kanban.
Individuals and teams love it for its benefits and rewards:
Not only does it provide an instant overview of where things are at, it also keeps you focused. When used consistently, you’ll become more adept at prioritizing, improving your workflow, organizing your work better, uncovering time-wasters, and learning what needs to be restructured or outsourced.
In a team environment, you’ll see each team member’s activities and learn to better understand “unseen” tasks. You’ll also uncover bottlenecks, and that is an opportunity to encourage collaboration with and support for other team members. Cross-training is an added benefit.
Lastly, and this must not be underestimated for either individuals or teams: Using the Kanban method also gives you an appreciation of everything that you did get accomplished. It’s an opportunity to acknowledge and celebrate. This, in turn, inspires and motivates, improves morale and performance, and – ultimately – increases the bottom line!
With tools like this, along with the accountability needed to ensure that they are used effectively, I help individuals and teams make the progress they need to get measurable results in improved performance, a better outlook, and an increased bottom line.
If you’re interested in how you can use this method effectively and tweak it for your needs, send me an email, and I’ll provide you a link to a brief video with the details you need.
