Be ready for change
  Constant change is a fact of life - if your business is "change-ready", you'll be able to cope. In modern business life, nothing is forever. But the need to change can be an opportunity as much as a challenge, especially if you're prepared. Jon Hemming of Unity Management says being "change-ready" means knowing your business's history and past performance, knowing its strengths and weaknesses and having a plan for the future. He recommends getting outside advice in drawing up that plan - the business owner may not be able to see his own shortcomings. Involve everyone in the plan, strive for early successes once it's in place, and don't forget to celebrate them.Topics: Business Growth, Business Processes, Management |
