What You Will Learn
Growth is a natural and desired goal for most kitchen and bath companies, but the unique and frustrating challenges that go with it are not. Every leader desiring to see his or her company take on more sales and earn more profit over time, must learn how to successfully navigate the no-man’s land of $1 – $3m and beyond, acquiring the tools and leadership skills to protect profit and cascade leadership responsibilities throughout the organization.
Business growth is often misunderstood as more: more sales, more revenue, and more profit. While all these metrics can be good things when on the increase, they are really only outcomes of growth. For a business to grow, it must mature in its ability to solve complex problems and overcome adversity. That means the leader or leaders must first aspire to and prioritize personal growth and the development of capable people around them, then cascade leadership disciplines throughout the organization.
This session will deliver the tools to equip leaders and their organizations to take the steps needed to achieve those outcomes. While many aspire to “more” as a mark of success, they seldom find it sustainable over time. Real, long-term success stories are all built on an inner developed strength and steadfast resolve that comes from disciplined leadership and proactive problem solving.
Learning Objectives: Adopting a growth mindset first: principles for orchestrating a quantum shift toward productivity in the culture of an organization / Strategic Leadership: establishing a common bond of shared, measurable goals and expectations for excellence / Value Channels: gaining tangible momentum through value stream mapping and streamlining business operations
