Managing Your Business

This afternoon I came across this post ‘Manage Your Business in 4 Easy Steps’ from Jeremiah Whitehead on GK Business. He details four steps business should take in order to ensure that their business will not fail. Here’s a brief recap of what he proposes.

  1. People – Your company’s first concern should be to keep employees happy. By creating an environment where people know exactly what to do, you will ensure that the quality of the product/service does not suffer.
  2. Applications - Using good business process management software can provide structure, control, and an easier way for people to manage conflicts. Applications that employers use on a daily basis can be controlled and monitored through BPM software.
  3. Databases – Databases can wreak havoc within the organization. Make sure that your BPM software allows for the programmability in multiple languages to avoid this problem.
  4. Quality Control – With solid tools and BPM software in your company you can rest assured that the quality of work will be high.

What steps has your business taken to create a more efficient and effective workplace?
