Think about the types of processes that run your business- the more you think about it the more you see just how many there are- recruitment, training, on boarding, payroll, tenders, Performance reviews, sales processes, manufacturing…….the list can literally go on and on….
Who is responsible for these processes? Who monitors there outcomes Does your business have an audit schedule for all processes? How do you know if a process is still serving your business or if it is causing a mismatch?
Don’t let fixed processes fool you. If you are in a business where there are lots of processes that require clear steps, and they have been that way for years, then you are creating a huge risk of mismatches. People will stay with the status quo, as it is known, and often even good employees who are normally innovative will not speak up, as they have become so used to the process, they simply do not see it any more.
The best way you can stay ahead of process mismatches in your business is develop a regular audit schedule of processes. Subscribe for free to the entire season of Engaging Your People for Success Subscribe
