Excellence in Execution
             Workshop




Performance Management Associates
The Basics
Any business is based on three cornerstones: assets, strategy
and execution.

This discussion will concentrate on the process to improve
execution of your business strategy.

PMA’s premise is that by getting everyone focused on the right
metrics, organizations can accelerate improvement.

At the end, ask yourself:

 Could your teams do better at implementing your strategy faster
 if they were more focused with measurements and action
 management systems?
The FTEA Method
Our Method is based on Focusing, Targeting, Evaluating and
Acting.

By working systematically within each department, you can go
far beyond “training” and “projects” to involve staff in measuring
and improving their own performance.

All employees can be engaged so that they become committed
to continuous incremental improvement (aka Kaizen).

Comments like “that’s the way they want it”, “they never listen to
us” and “what can I do about it” can be replaced with “they do
listen” and “I am empowered and accountable”.
Any business is a sequence of steps
              and functions

For each step, there are definable
      Key Success Factors
  Like :
  • Productivity
  • Cost
  • Quality
  • Customer Service
  • Value Recovery
  • Safety

  For each KSF we can measure success (KPIs)

New Business Devel. KPI Example
Did you have a good day?
Informally ask employees at a specific function if they
had a “good day”.

Do they all:
– reference their answers to common “Key Success factors”
  and their personal “Key Performance Indicators”
– relate their personal performance to their targets
– identify why there were variances and
– either tell you what is being done or what could be done?

Or do they leave you wondering what they really did
all day?

If it’s the latter, consider what the impact would be if
you could get everyone focused on your objectives
instead of theirs?

  • 1. Excellence in Execution Workshop Performance Management Associates
  • 2. The Basics Any business is based on three cornerstones: assets, strategy and execution. This discussion will concentrate on the process to improve execution of your business strategy. PMA’s premise is that by getting everyone focused on the right metrics, organizations can accelerate improvement. At the end, ask yourself: Could your teams do better at implementing your strategy faster if they were more focused with measurements and action management systems?
  • 3. The FTEA Method Our Method is based on Focusing, Targeting, Evaluating and Acting. By working systematically within each department, you can go far beyond “training” and “projects” to involve staff in measuring and improving their own performance. All employees can be engaged so that they become committed to continuous incremental improvement (aka Kaizen). Comments like “that’s the way they want it”, “they never listen to us” and “what can I do about it” can be replaced with “they do listen” and “I am empowered and accountable”.
  • 4. Any business is a sequence of steps and functions Sales Sales Support Management of Steps • How do you know if you are effective? Business Planning Process • How do you generate improvement? Operations Delivery Inventory Mgmt A/P and A/R
  • 5. For each step, there are definable Key Success Factors Like : • Productivity • Cost • Quality • Customer Service • Value Recovery • Safety For each KSF we can measure success (KPIs)
  • 6. Management Process Fundamentals Focus Evaluate • KSF’s Target • Measure Act • KPI’s • Report •Controllable •Analytical, not •Real time •Specific •Measurable historical •Visible •Urgent •Relevant •Attainable •Quantitative •Accountable •Front line and qualitative ownership

  • 9. New Business Devel. KPI Example
  • 10. Did you have a good day? Informally ask employees at a specific function if they had a “good day”. Do they all: – reference their answers to common “Key Success factors” and their personal “Key Performance Indicators” – relate their personal performance to their targets – identify why there were variances and – either tell you what is being done or what could be done? Or do they leave you wondering what they really did all day? If it’s the latter, consider what the impact would be if you could get everyone focused on your objectives instead of theirs?

Editor's Notes

  • #5: Your business has a sequence of events from making a sale through delivering the product or service and getting paid for it. At each step in that process, there is a formal or informal system to show how well it is being done. This can range from informal feedback and continuous crisis management through a formal, quantitative system that drives definition of problems and action to continuously improve. An organization with the former is continuously chasing problems. One with the latter can be an industry leader with superior customer loyalty and profitability. We are going to work through one area of your business to demonstrate
  • #6: So now we will redo this system, keeping in mind typical KSfs.
  • #8: Your business has a sequence of events from making a sale / through delivering the product or service and getting paid for it. We are talking about what kind of management system exists at each step in that sequence.
  • #9: Work left to right. The objective is to demonstrate that there could be a more intensive system that could prompt improvement actions to eliminate obstacles.
  • #13: So if every functional group followed such a process, what high level improvements could be made. Customer satisfaction = more share / volume, reduced cost of replacing lost customers, perhaps higher margins, higher margin product mix, improved communication / partnership and collaboration on new product development, less sales time wasted solving problems… Volume may be a big one. Needs new business development. May be an existing issue or could come from process improvements making volume growth available – key is incremental margin! Cost reduction is important, but less so if they are not at capacity. Value will be big in resource based businesses. Also could be a planning / sales issue if capacity is consumed on low margin per unit of capacity items (do they know?) Quality = less downfall, cust sat’n, less problems… Other???
