We identify key processes where your company can increase efficiencies – lower cost and decrease the time taken – within the process. Inefficiencies could be caused by internal or external changes such as changes in regulatory policies or technological developments.
We also understand critical aspects of each process from a business and consumer point of view. We then prioritize key processes on the basis of their nature and potential to improve, followed by an analysis of the process, which identifies gaps between the ‘as is’ process and the ‘real process’. The process is then redesigned and improvements are implemented accordingly. Finally, we monitor the performance of the new processes to ensure their smooth functioning in line with organizational requirements.
We work for improving performance through people and functional excellence, capability, talent management and planning programs. We create the performance management systems aligning KRA’s & KPI’s to Vision, Mission & Values through parameterization for evaluation an sustained workforce growth. We put an extra thrust on innovation capability building to sustain long term vision of your company and unleash the creative talent within your teams.
With a focus on speed, quality and cost savings, we provide efficiencies in areas like supply chain, sourcing, quality and compliance, shared services/outsourcing, working capital decrease and fixed asset optimization. Key initiatives include:
Review firm’s goals and objectives
Evaluate organizational structure
Analyze internal operations
Review/develop position description
Define annual revenue potential and target
Prepare “Break-Even” cost analysis
Performance Management
A “Business Coach” is a person who can impact the growth of a business or individual – through the process of optimizing the business goals and persons involved through series of proven strategies, ultimately moving the entity towards mutually agreed upon goals.
While this is not the reality of every situation, theoretically, we have the ability to help a business owner, entrepreneur, or manager, to look at their situation, their circumstances in totality, or an element of their business and to establish what we call ‘The Gap’.
So, we jointly establish an aspirational goal that is essentially a delta between where you are now and where you want to be. And where they want to be may or may not be where they could or should be. But it’s something the coach and the client agree upon together.The business coach’s job is to guide the client through the different points,methodologies, philosophies, and ideologies required for attaining the targeted goals for growth. There’s a multiplicity of ways that a coach can work. But basically, the coach collaborates with the client to help the client. The coach doesn’t do the client’s work. The coach helps the client to achieve, over a period of time, a specific or an integrative goal. And it depends on the relationship.

We also act as a ‘Mentor’ to some of the business owners. The basic difference between ‘Mentor’ and ‘Coach’ here is that in case of coaching the owner knows where to go and is looking at ‘Coach’ to guide him to reach the Goal. In case of mentorship the whole process of arriving at goals and execution is guided by the ‘Mentor’. We do consider ourselves a high-performance mentor. We are the thinking partners because we help you think differently. We are true mentors most of the time as opposed to just being a coach. A mentor is somebody who’s been there, done that, knows what’s possible, what’s dangerous and will not allow you to under-aspire or over-aspire without progression. We help you first of all clarify what you’re trying to accomplish and why.
We then reconcile where accomplishing that in your current competitive environment with the strategy and business model and dynamics metrics you’re yielding is going to get you there or not. We operate in this world called optimization, or they’re spread across several points. We care deeply about the transformative impact that our expertise or skill makes. Meaning that when we apply it, we must add a reasonable certainty that given the right environment, and the right dynamics has a higher probability of producing a desired and a positive outcome.
Some of the reasons why do many business owners never achieve their goals?
Their personal and business objectives are in conflict.
They have abstract hopes and dreams.
They don’t reverse engineer.
They don’t have plans – strategic or tactical.
They don’t monitor their progress.
They don’t analyze their data.
They do not learn from the Past
Business Revamp and Business Continuity
You can’t predict the next crisis, but you can be prepared for it. The Covid-19 pandemic has proved that the occasions may be rare but if you don’t have a drawn-up plan then revamping your business becomes the biggest challenge in the given circumstances. Business disruptions can impact organizations of any size in any location. These crises can come from weather, power outages, political events or like the current pandemic outbreaks, every organization needs to develop a business continuity plan to ensure its business operations can continue, no matter the disruption.
Prioritize people safety and regular engagement to keep updating impacts and ability to deliver as per changing circumstances. Listening and engaging with your customers is important.
Re-validate strategy for continuity – Evaluation of short-term liquidity, assessing operational & financial risks and agility of response, considering alternate supply chain, Analyzing & understanding ‘Data’, ‘Competitors’ & ‘Trends’
Building resilience- Resetting business assumptions, assessing new business opportunities, prioritize technology & automation interventions.
A critical component of that business plan is to ensure that users remain productive while maintaining the necessary level of security and control over user access to corporate resources. Workspace, including virtual apps and desktops, enable seamless workforce productivity, giving employees the flexibility to work from anywhere, all while keeping your apps and information secure. This would also include creating a new HR vision and strategy for WHM employees and their assessment and delivery as per objectives and management expectation.
The critical steps may include:
Budgeting and Meeting
As with all major decisions and plans a company must make, meeting to decide the specifics of a continuity plan is an important process. It must be done before moving forward.
Forming a Team
It is critical to choose team members who will execute the plan and make sure everything is done correctly. You want to make sure you have the right people for each task.
Putting someone in charge of communicating between team members and those in management is important.
Analyze, Test, and Implement Your Plan
Conducting a Business Impact Analysis is your first step toward success.
This is to determine the impact of a scenario and how it would affect the business in the long run. It’s also used to determine what funds would need to be channeled into more critical functions in the case of a disaster.
Once this has been figured out, the next step is testing the plan after the necessary team members have been trained.
IT and Business Solutions
Making sure your company is prepared for any scenario is a big deal. We would be helping you to feel secure about the technology and cyber security of your business.
