Ten Steps to maximize shareholder value
According to Family Business Institute, 2/3 of the baby boomer owners of businesses in the USA and Canada will not transfer their asset to their children. There will be a huge wealth transfer. Only the best prepared and positioned owners will get top dollar.
- Clarify the “cultural Values “of your business and get everybody using them to generate Corporate energy.
- Establish an ethics platform that clearly delineates behavioral boundaries
- Enforce a zero tolerance attitude towards for process non compliance and ethics violations
- Move details about how your business operates out of your head (away from the seat of your pants).
- Reduce management’s reliance on personal authority and manage by “process-discipline”
- Replace departmental silos with strategic processes that align managers and employees behind the customer’s total experience. Assign a process owner (designated worrier) and a process team (up to 3 people) for each strategic process. These people will retain their “day jobs”.
- Transform job descriptions into documented task processes that spell out , the desired outcome, a check list of steps in completing the task, and how the task will be measured (each employee will be responsible for several task processes).
- Implement an employee centered continuous improvement system that reduces waste and rework.
- Standardize supervisory protocols. Measure the supervisory effectiveness of everybody with direct reports (including the CEO):
- Help every employee paint themselves into a picture (VISION) of the companies preferred future—then celebrate successes as you move towards that vision.
