Recently; I decided to clean out my garage. In the last few years, I have managed to store enough items in my garage to fill a small dumpster and to certify my membership in the national association for
amateur hoarders. While it always seemed like a good idea to keep each item I had accumulated, I did not realize the chaos that my haven of mementos and knick knacks was growing into. Whether it is a high school yearbook, old empty buckets of paint, or gardening tools, my garage had become a place to store both useful items and also unnecessary ones.
Similar to my garage, I realized that we can at times have a tendency to do the same things with our business workflows. We can get so caught up in keeping components of the daily process that we don’t take time to review each step and purge the elements that are no longer needed. Periodically, it is healthy to step back and take a comprehensive view of each step in your daily process and reassess if you are using the most strategic methods to achieving your end result.
Stay tuned this week to learn how to
- Examine your daily workflows
- Categorize steps as strategic, tactical, or redundant
- Create a more strategic daily work cycle
- Walk into your new and improved system of operations
