rethink your business 2015
TRANSCRIPT
In 2015 will you be playing to WIN or playing not to LOSE?
3 Areas of yourBusiness you need to rethink…
“Create a plan covering these critical areas and you will ensure your business grows in 2015” Steve
Sutton, Business Doctor SA
The Study showed that 77% of business owners have not achieved their company vision
77%Don’t achieve!
“Somewhere in life,
we decided that we
are incapable of
winning and have
lowered our
expectations to
merely not coming
in last”
Rethink – your Aspirations
Ref: Weekdone.com
1. Why are we even doing this? Understanding stakeholders aspirations.
2. What's important to us? Core Values and our business DNA.
3. What business are we in? Clue, its what our customers buy not what we sell!
4. What’s the Vision? What does Winning look like for us?
“You make decisions from the place you want to be, not
necessarily the place you're at now. Even if that's a really
scary place to be” MICHELE PARIZA WACEK

Rethink – your Market
Now, I want to be clear…
There's nothing wrong with playing not to
lose, but chances are you WILL be playing
small, like so many others
“You're going to miss opportunities to get
your message and vision out in a big way.
You're not going to take chances where
you might fall on your face” MICHELE PARIZA WACEK
http://www.evancarmichael.com
“You take risks (and a lot of those risks other people
just don't "get"). Maybe you invest in a high end
coaching program. Maybe you decide to launch a
product that looks on the outside to be a bad idea”MICHELE PARIZA WACEK

5. Understand the Big Picture? Future proofing your business.
6. Annalise your market? Spot opportunities to grow.
7. GIVE analysis? What are we Great at, what do we need to Improve, where are we Vulnerable or what our Edge!

A survey of businesses found that more than 80% don’t track their business objectives
80%
Don’t track!
“small businesses need strategy, too…
A delayed or non-existent strategy can
lead to mediocre positioning in the
marketplace, inability to compete and
ultimately failure”
Rethink – plan to Win
Playing to Win: How Strategy Really Works
Playing to Win: How Strategy Really Works
“Plans and tactics are also elements of strategy, but they aren’t
enough either. A detailed plan that specifies what the firm will do
(and when) does not imply that the things it will do add up to
sustainable competitive advantage.”
8. Strategy: defining a clear focus and how to WIN.
9. Making it happen: Define critical success factors and action plan.
10.SMART: What gets measured gets done, make sure its Specific, Measurable, Assignable ,Realistic and Time-related.

world” MICHELE PARIZA WACEK
