IEE Case Study: Oracle Packaging

Unfortunately it is probably often true that someone could be reprimanded because of a know-it-all attitude by leadership when suggesting how the overall business could be improved.  However, now top leadership is often having major credibility problems, which could mean the stage is set for change.

However, suggesting an improved business system will not be easy.  How leadership is approached can often guarantee success.  Advocacy selling is the way to go. A leading thinking influencer can have top leadership connections.  Headway can be made through his person when presenting a clear concise approach that directly addresses leadership pains; i.e., not selling the benefits.  What needs to be sold is a system that is much more than implementing process improvement from a brainstormed list of potential candidates. 

The following statement makes sense to me: “We all need a different set of business approaches and metrics that can bring sustainability to our own future development.”  If we don’t do something NOW our grandchildren will not have the life that we have grown accustomed to.

To be sure, advocacy selling can trickle up to leadership who have the right intentions for the business in its entirety.  We will find executives that would like to have a no-nonsense system for analyses blended w/ innovation, improvements and measurements that benefit the overall corporation.  There must come a time when corporate america moves away from top executive changes every new season with an accompanying new-fangled business methology, where the old guard was granted a major golden parachute even as the company value plumeted during their term.
