Process Based Leadership
(PRWEB) May 23, 2005 — Assuring yourself of business success is as simple as 1, 2, 3, 4, says one of the authors of the recently-released business novel, Buried Alive! Digging Out of a Management Dumpster, now in its second printing.
John Pyecha, executive vice president of Competitive Solutions, Inc., (www.competitive-solutions.net) and one of the co-authors of the book, explains: “One, two, three, four refer to the four basic principles of Process Based Leadership — PBL. These four principles are accountability, communication, a behavioral process, and an auditable business focus process. When these are correctly applied, a company often experiences a new sense of focus, urgency, and accountability among the staff virtually overnight.”
Pyecha and his co-authors can name a number of Fortune 500 companies where that “new sense of focus, urgency and accountability” happened. The companies he mentions, clients of Competitive Solutions, use PBL. Industry Week named one of those businesses, Brazeway Inc., as one of the top five best-run manufacturing firms in the world. Several big-city governments, the Department of Defense, and some of the world’s busiest airports also are also putting PBL to work.
“Managers in these companies had been buried in a management dumpster of ‘flavor-of-the-month’ quality and leadership programs. But not anymore,” says Pyecha. “PBL gave them the tools to dig their way out.”
