PEOPLE DECISIONS

Do you want to build a harmonious culture within your company where people are empowered to be accountable?  If you had the choice right now would you enthusiastically re-hire everyone on your team?  Are your staff members actively contributing to the growth of your company? 

Ask yourself:

  • What percentage of your team members are ‘A Players’?
  • Are your staff members working to their individual strengths?
  • What percentage of your staff is truly engaged in and passionate about what they do?
  • Does your company have a clear focus?
  • Does each staff member know what they are accountable for?

As your company grows and expands your most difficult decisions will be about putting the right staff in the right roles. 

Quad Consulting will work with you to:

  • Improve both the hiring and retention of ‘A students’
  • Make sure there is clear accountability for each function and process
  • Develop more cohesion with improved communication and stronger trust

Quad Consulting will give you the tools to improve the skills, attitude, and behaviour of your staff members in the fields of leadership, sales, time management, goal planning and setting, and customer loyalty.

Strategy Decisions

Creating a strategy that truly differentiates you from the competition

Can you and your company leaders quickly and easily state your company’s strategy?  Do you have a concrete plan in place that guarantees sustainable growth? 

Ask yourself:

  • Can your staff describe your company’s strategy simply?
  • Do your team members understand your company’s long- and short-term priorities?
  • How many quarters in a row have you beaten your revenue targets?

EXECUTION Decisions

“The Main Thing is to keep the Main Thing the Main Thing” Stephen Covey

Is your business consistently and efficiently converting revenue into profit?  Are your leaders and team members accountable and disciplined in the execution of their roles and responsibilities? 

Ask yourself:

Is your Leadership team and managers regularly reporting on their progress against a high set of priorities?

Have you identified what the most important thing is your company must achieve this year or quarter?

Are you effectively communicating goals, targets, and priorities to your staff members?

Are your priorities aligned with your the long- term objectives?

Do you have a measurable set of metrics connected to each priority?

Even the most powerful strategy is nothing without precise and disciplined execution  By instilling successful habits of execution you will see a marked improvement in profitability, efficiency, and productivity.  We will show you how to turn complacency and poor execution into operational excellence by improving work habits in your leaders and your team members.

Cash Decisions
