What is your next step for the right plan that all in your company know
and can follow?
As we have written in earlier articles, Procter & Gamble devotes considerable
time and effort to creating the specific strategic plan for their overall business
and under that plan for each of their business units and brands.
During these early weeks of 2015, P&G has a clear next step. It is an in-depth review of their plans to
insure that they still are on target and will achieve the required results. This is very important work since it will
direct corporate effort and resources.
Once the plan is vetted, they will move quickly to put it into action. It is understood across the company, the
roles and responsibilities of all. The
focus is clear and the next steps known.
How will they accomplish this work?
It involves top management and then as it cascades down, directors and
managers. It is facilitated by professionals
with the experience to guide the required data collection and the subsequent
reviews. These professionals are
required so that the executives can concentrate on developing the right
plans. Most companies do not have these
skills on staff but hire experienced consultants to assist the company. It provides a very positive ROI on the
relatively small amount of funding required.
What are you doing? If you need
help in either creating the right plan to start or refining an existing plan
and committing it to written form so that all can follow, please contact
us. We have a wealth of experience both
at Procter & Gamble as well as with companies in a broad range of
industries.
