Do you have problems in your business?
Talking “about the business” helps to identify problems, but it does not help to solve them. At this point everyone would like to find solutions, but they don’t know how.
Hiring a consultant to help you solve problems will often come to mind.
The first thing that will happen is that the consultant will try to find out what your business is about, what you do and how you have it defined, or not?
The consultant begins to make drawings or diagrams, to try to understand what is happening, just as a sailor would look for a map to know how to guide the ship to its destination.
Consultants and auditors analyze the business “from the outside” and often use notations to make representations of processes that are difficult for you and your staff to understand.
The consultant takes “a copy” of your business to analyze it and then comes back with “answers”. It turned out that the consultant had understood nothing or very little, and he advised you the same as the books say:
- reduce staff here…..
- do not waste so much paper in these activities….
- you can delete this part and you get…..
Not what YOU need. ✌
What does FINLAZ offer?
FINLAZ suggests a notation that we have successfully applied many times. Made up of boxes and arrows. It is called IDEF (www.idef.com). It is formal, but intuitive, and we defend it from experience.
You don’t need fancy resources, just a whiteboard or large piece of paper.
Boxes and arrows are enough, like the Indians.
At FINLAZ we recommend first defining the cyclical production system of your business.
Three main processes are represented: production, development and marketing. The 3 processes together form the productive system of your business.
Then the processes must be drawn with a greater level of detail, achieving the participation of the employees in their definition and understanding.
You just have to start drawing on the board what is being done today, to analyze the weak points.
People get excited, discuss, defend their points of view, in other words, they align with the business objectives.
Medium to large businesses are drawn with FINLAZ in less than a week, without dedicating the day full time.
We have dedicated many years to this activity of helping entrepreneurs to SEE 👀 themselves, to realize WHERE the problems are. WHAT they must complete and WHAT they must eliminate.
Dare to learn with us and you will be able to drive your improvements to the business!.
You will have the knowledge that you will use all your life, without having to hire others to keep improving constantly.
