Scrutinize business model, cash flow, P&L, balance sheet, key performance measures

Pinpoint opportunities, explore options, and follow through with needed changes

Improve confidence, credibility, communication, and constructive innovation
Better relationships with customers, employees, and suppliers

Connect the dots on how each person affects results
Key individual metrics to achieve goals

Spot frustration/vagueness – clarify to better instill practical improvement vision

Spark initiative, asking “What would you change or improve? What’s the next step?”

Upgrade traditional practices with value increasing improvements
