What Picture Is Your Vision Painting?
Does your vision paint a picture that people can see and follow? Does your vision lead to action? How do you know? Do you know why your employees work for you or your customers do business with you? Most people will tell me it’s because of what they do and how they do it. Rarely do they tell me why? What you do and how you do it are not as important as why. Your why is your vision. Your way paints a picture and leads employees and customers to want to do business with you.

There is a new self-proclaimed expert every week. Are you waiting to see next month’s reports? If you don’t take any action, what is going to be different next month? Are you just confused and afraid if you take action things may get worse? How much worse can they get?

The Distinction Between a Corporate Bee and a Robot

It’s common to see things like call centers, IT departments, and human resources outsourced to other companies. A department like accounting, or especially a position as important as the CFO, may seem a little unusual compared to those other options. The truth, however, is that outsourcing this position can reduce the time it takes to make big decisions, increase profitability, and lead to improved CFO advisory services.
