Behaviors and Management

Individual Management

Focus on self-awareness and

learning (7)

Focus on Self Awareness and Learning recognizes how our behaviors affect those around us. We must

accurately assess our own strengths and weaknesses and take action to improve.

•Listen and accept feedback for improvement as a message that others care about your safety.•Accept feedback and demonstrate commitment to modify behaviors based upon it. •Keep emotions from interfering with performance and objectivity.•Push yourself outside of your individual comfort zones in order to learn and grow. •Learn from personal successes and failures, as well as from those of others. -

Communicate effectively (5)

providing timely and concise information to others, and using clear and thoughtful oral and written communications to influence, negotiate, and collaborate effectively. Leaders and associates need to appreciate that effective communication is about listening and being listened to, but is not always about being in agreement.

•Simplify complex issues whenever possible.•Write and speak clearly and succinctly. •Anticipate the informational needs of diverse audiences. •Use the most effective means or technology to provide information to people around the globe

Be an integrative thinker (3)

requires decisiveness and taking action by applying intuition, experience, and judgment to the data available. We should demonstrate the ability to assimilate various and conflicting information or opinions into a well-considered decision. We should understand the implications of individual actions or recommendations on other markets, processes, and functions

•Each day make safety an integral part of your routine. Never perform a task unless it can be done safely.•Connect experiences, observations, and seemingly unrelated bits of information to see patterns and draw conclusions not readily apparent to others.•Use information, judgment, and logic to understand a problem or situation and assess it carefully before acting.•Be able to identify and address the critical issues in a complex situation.•Give appropriate weight and balance to different pieces of information.•Identify the part of the business value chain that is affected by a particular decision or action, diagnose the situation, and prioritize what needs to be done and who needs to be involved.•Think strategically and critically on multiple levels while gathering, analyzing, and synthesizing globally relevant data.•Balance seemingly conflicting goals and do well at executing both (i.e., innovation and dependability, clear goals and flexible strategies, quality and speed).

Exemplify technical and functional excellence (2)

being capable and effective in a particular area of expertise. We should remain aware of advances and current thinking in our fields and look for ways to apply the latest technologies to our work

•Form opinions and conclusions that are technically sound. •Increase technical or functional knowledge through education.•Understand, promote, and utilize TOC, Six Sigma, and continuous improvement tools to solve problems and improve processes.(back to top)

Major 4 Factors

1. Strategy: devise and maintain a clearly stated, focused strategy.

2. Execution: develop and maintain flawless

operational execution.

3. Culture: develop and maintain a performance-oriented culture.

4. Structure: build and maintain a fast, flexible, flat organization.

Page 74: HR and OD Strategies for Business Sustainability

Strategy

Whatever your strategy, whether it is low prices or innovative products,it will work if it is sharply defined, clearly communicated, and wellunderstood by employees, customers, partners, and investors.

• Build a strategy around a clear value proposition for the customer.

• Develop strategy from the outside in, based on what your customers, partners, and investors have to say—and how they behave—not on gut feel or instinct.

• Continually fine-tune your strategy based on changes in the marketplace—for example, a new technology, a social trend, a government regulation, or a competitor's breakaway product.

• Clearly communicate your strategy within the organization and to customers and other external stakeholders.

• Keep focused. Grow your core business, and beware the unfamiliar.

Page 75: HR and OD Strategies for Business Sustainability

Major 4 Factors

1. Strategy: devise and maintain a clearly stated, focused strategy.

Page 76: HR and OD Strategies for Business Sustainability

Execution

Develop and maintain flawless operational execution. Youmight not always delight your customers, but make surenever to disappoint them.

• Deliver products and services that consistently meet customers' expectations.

• Put decision-making authority close to the front lines so employees can react quickly to changing market conditions.

• Constantly strive to eliminate all forms of excess and waste; improve productivity at a rate that is roughly twice the industry average.

Page 77: HR and OD Strategies for Business Sustainability

Major 4 Factors

2. Execution: develop and maintain flawless

operational execution.

Page 78: HR and OD Strategies for Business Sustainability

Culture

Corporate culture advocates sometimes argue that if you can make thework fun, all else will follow. Our results suggest that holding highexpectations about performance matters a lot more.

• Inspire all managers and employees to do their best.

• Empower employees and managers to make independent decisions and to find ways to improve operations—including their own.

• Reward achievement with pay based on performance, but keep raising the performance bar.

• Pay psychological rewards in addition to financial ones.

• Create a challenging, satisfying work environment.

• Establish and abide by clear company values.

Page 79: HR and OD Strategies for Business Sustainability

Major 4 Factors

3. Culture: develop and maintain a performance-oriented culture.

Page 80: HR and OD Strategies for Business Sustainability

Structure

Managers spend hours agonizing over how to structuretheir organizations (by product, geography, customer, andso on). Winners show that what really counts is whetherstructure reduces bureaucracy and simplifies work.

• Simplify. Make your organization easy to work in and work with.

• Promote cooperation and the exchange of information across the whole company.

• Put your best people closest to the action.

• Establish systems for the seamless sharing of knowledge.

Page 81: HR and OD Strategies for Business Sustainability

Major 4 Factors

4. Structure: build and maintain a fast, flexible, flat organization.

Page 82: HR and OD Strategies for Business Sustainability

Secondary 4 Factors

Master two of the four secondary management practices:

(5) Talent: hold on to talented employees and find more.

(6) Innovation: make industry-transforming innovations.

(7) Leadership: find leaders who are committed to the business and its people.

(8) Mergers and acquisitions: seek growth through mergers and partnerships

Page 83: HR and OD Strategies for Business Sustainability

Talent

Winners hold on to talented employees and develop more.

Fill mid- and high-level jobs with outstanding internal talent whenever possible.

Create and maintain top-of-the-line training and development programs.

Design jobs that will intrigue and challenge your best performers.

Keep senior management actively involved in the selection and development of people.

Page 84: HR and OD Strategies for Business Sustainability

Innovation

An agile company turns out innovative products andservices and anticipates disruptive events in an industryrather than reacting when it may already be too late.

• Relentlessly pursue disruptive technologies to develop innovative new products and services.

• Don't hesitate to cannibalize existing products.

• Apply new technologies to enhance all operating processes, not just those dedicated to designing new products and services.

Page 85: HR and OD Strategies for Business Sustainability

Leadership

Choosing great chief executives can raise performancesignificantly.

Closely link the leadership team's pay to its performance.

Encourage management to strengthen its connectionswith people at all levels of the company.

Inspire management to hone its capacity to spot opportunities and problems early.

Appoint a board of directors whose members have a substantial stake in the company's success.

Page 86: HR and OD Strategies for Business Sustainability

Mergers & Acquisitions

Internally generated growth is essential, but companies thatcan master mergers and acquisitions can also be winners.

• Enter new businesses that leverage existing customer relationships and complement core strengths.

• • When partnering, move into new businesses that make

the best use of both partners' talents.

• Develop a system for identifying, screening, and closing deals.
