What is Re-engineering?

Re-engineering  according to experts Michael Hammer and James Champy is the "fundamental rethinking and radical redesign of business processes to achieve dramatic improvements in critical, contemporary measures of performance, such as cost, quality, service, and speed. Re-engineering asks the question "why are we doing this at all" and encourages leaps forward, not incremental change. Re-engineering assumes the majority of process steps and structure are non-value added and encourages an organization to toss out everything and start over with a brand-new picture. Reengineering starts with a high-level assessment of the organization's mission, strategic goals, and customer needs. Basic questions are asked, such as: Does our mission need to be redefined? Are our strategic goals aligned with our mission? Who are our customers? In this assessment, an organization may find that it is operating on questionable assumptions, particularly regarding the wants and needs o...

Five Step Approach to Improve Personal Productivity.

Five Step Approach to Improve Personal Productivity. 1. Eliminate what is unnecessary.  Each month focus on one expense and identify if it can be reduced by other vendors, re-negotiation with the current vendor, or stopping the service (do you really need it?). Example expenses include insurance, entertainment, cell phone, internet, bank fees, and computer apps.  2. Do yourself a favor, when driving or walking, turn your phone to do not disturb, and wait to text until you are in a safe space, not in the middle of the street. The goal? Not to get into an accident, get hurt, or hurt others.  3. Decrease friction. In our personnel relationships, it is common to experience or cause friction. Avoid complaints by helping out with shopping, cleaning, chores, and the kid’s homework. Don’t use the excuse that you are too tired. Own the task. Have fun. The goodwill built will benefit you at a later time. 4. Dramatic leaps. Are you happy with your work and relationships...
