Moving from a spreadsheet dominated, huge onerous event driven environment for budgeting and measurement to a streamlined, cohesive, fluid process involves many steps.
- Acknowledge the current state and profess the desired state
- Assess your options; can outside agents provide a path to solutions?
- Implement the options in a well defined manner, create small, continuous victories and constantly communicate
- Involve all stakeholders, especially operations and personnel effected by the change
- Evaluate and review results continuously
Technological advancements have made this journey much easier to embark on, but just like ignoring your GPS, one wrong turn can create dire results. |
