   Module #4: Efficiency (Organization of Systems and Structure)

Once everyone understands and owns current reality (step one), is able to work well together with good interaction and interpersonal skills (step two), knows where they're going by having developed a shared visionary strategic plan (step three); it is time to focus on efficiency and productivity. Step four specifically focuses on these issues.

Here is where we look at how people work together and how efficient they are in doing so. The results of step four have people working together to do the highest quality work in the most efficient, productive way possible to obtain a win-win-win between the customer/client, the team member and the organization or business. Further, in this step we develop relentless accountability. People understand the importance of being intensely accountable to each other as well as to their leadership/management.

During step four we look at every process, procedure, and system. All of the ways people work are challenged toward greater efficiency. We collectively find the best way to get from point A to point Z in a given area of work. It is always enjoyable, and quite beneficial, to watch people take something they have been doing for some time, challenge it, and come up with a better way to achieve the end results. The creation of more efficient systems and the challenging of dysfunctional systems produce greater productivity and profitability. It also increases the quality of work.

In short this step is where you begin to see the increase in profitably, productivity, and the hard-core numbers. The creation of better systems accompanied by the concept of relentless accountability is what causes this to happen.

In this step we reveal the truth: "If you always do what you've always done, you will always get what you've always gotten." Step #4 eliminates the inertia of the past that often dictates our present and future. People become more proactive instead of reactive. There is a sense of control and responsive, responsible, decision-making rather than crisis management and reactive decision-making.

In addition to developing efficient systems there is a need to have a supportive organizational structure. The accountability trails we help you develop within the organizational structure will ensure continued productivity. Also, this is where the concepts of leadership and management are leveraged. In addition, the organizational structure is created or adjusted to support efficient systems. The organizational structure is not created just to honor people or to find a position for those who have been in the firm for some time. The emphasis on step four is efficiency, productivity, and accountability toward doing the best that can be done to accomplish the organizations macro and micro goals.
