Project Description
Why attend
Early Warning Management is a new methodology aiming to alert the Management that a Company Value (e.g. Sales), which up to now seems normal, has entered a deterioration path. Similarly, Management is warned if something, which was in bad condition has entered an improvement path. Sales, since it is the most important Company Value, will be used as an example during the presentation of the course. Nevertheless, EWM can be used to analyze the whole organization, or independently used for some Business Units or some product families.
Course Objectives
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
- Understand the principles of Normality, Threat, Opportunity and threat Dynamics
- Analyse Company Values to its inherent affecting factors and parameters
- Detect incoming Threats which can cause a Company Value (e.g. Sales) to decline
- Detect an incoming Opportunities, which if properly exploited, can lead to an improved outcome
- When the company is in decline, identify and assess conditions which could lead to an improvement or even to getting out of the crisis period.
- Establish a unique control point for all information and procedures related to a specific Company Value, which will allow a better organization in that area.
- Support the decision making process and any related action plan
Who should attend
This course is ideal for either managers who are or may be involved in any level of decision making or employees who may, in the course of their normal duties, be called upon to take up a position in this decision making process. Alternatively, the course would suit anyone within the company who wishes to understand the principles of Early Warning Management.
