Are You Flying a One-Winged Airplane?

There are stories upon stories of things that can go wrong with an airplane. If one thing is certain it’s a healthy, optimized plane that requires both wings to be working and in alignment. One malfunction of a wing, and suddenly the entire plane and all onboard could be in jeopardy. And if you’re on that flight, you’re probably hoping and praying that the flight captains are trained and prepared for what’s to come. 

That same concept applies to your company. 

To effectively operate, you need your people and processes working in tandem. At the point that one strategy is broken or less comprehensive, you run the risk of your flight being compromised. 

In the best-case scenario, you weather the insane turbulence expending far too much energy trying to keep the flight from taking a sharp decline and jeopardizing the whole operation. Worst case scenario, you’re headed for a bleak future with many casualties and a lot of bad press. 

However, with proper maintenance conducted, there is less risk associated with the flight. There will always be unforeseen and unavoidable consequences that arise, but with proper maintenance and training, you’re better poised to handle those circumstances when they occur. 

How do you poise your company with proper training and maintenance? 

Let’s take a quick “PULSE” on your business: 

When was the last time you actively engaged feedback from employees, clients, and other stakeholders? 

How did you engage those findings to discern and leverage the feedback to create stronger and more sustainable operations? 

Do you have the right tools, structures, and people in play to weather economic, political, and other unforeseen or unavoidable obstacles?

Are you poised to pivot without losing control?

If you can’t answer any of these questions or are unsure if your operations are well poised, WM Consulting is here to help! We are a business operations consulting company focused on helping elevate your people and processes so you can focus on what matters most.
