What's
my plan
for your business?
"Insanity: Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."
-Albert Einstein (Supposedly)
(the verdict is out on this one, some say it was said by Mark Twain. Unfortunately, you can't ask someone whose been dead for 60+ years what they may have said 80+ years ago. )
Here's the thing about change. Oftentimes people are resistant to it which is usually because they are downright afraid of it and of the uncertainty that sometimes comes along with it. I am here to help! I love change! Not for the sake of change, but to see new and improved results. To see a company thrive and to see people light up after the resistance barriers are broken down and I am able to bring relief to those who don't realize how a few changes can give huge payback and add value.
My superpower is the ability to come into a business, asking the right questions to get the answers that we need to make a strategy and put a plan into action. In doing this, we get the results that you've always wanted from your business. I have the ability to put things into layman terms that people can understand. I guess you could say I'm bilingual; I speak English and Financial and I'm an excellent translator.
Every business is unique, every situation is unique. What works for one company may not work for another. This is one of the things that I love about what I do. Every new client and their business is a new and fresh opportunity to roll up my sleeves, pop the hood and take a peek at the mechanics and how it runs.
All that being said, I do have a tried and true approach that has served me well.
Organizational change doesn't come easy and often fails. Leading and implementing change requires a lot of people skills and a team that is engaged. I have found that communication that is timely, honest, and consistent works best.
