Don’t make your business take a bigger step of the leg

Take the biggest step that the leg can be expensive and we are not only talking about money

We are honest: growing is the goal of every company. Expanding, innovating, reaching new markets, increasing profits and obtaining visibility are objectives present in most strategic plans if not in all. However, to put the theory into practice, we must make sure we have the necessary tools, because nothing worse than growing without being prepared for a minimum.

Give the biggest step that the leg can be expensive and I am not only talking about money, but also of reputation and even the health of the organization, which could end up hurting some hasty action, even if it is well expected. The fact is that companies that seek rapid growth without solid foundations can end hostage for their success.

This happens mainly due to the lack of planning and understanding of the company’s current scenario, which makes the team not aligned and the processes are immature. In addition, the lack of clarity of the leadership in the face of priorities is extremely harmful as a whole. However, it is not always easy to recognize these notice points, which makes the Management wants to advance without what is necessary for this.

And how can we try to prevent this type of situation from happening? Okrs – key objectives and results (objectives and key results) – can be the solution, as it works with shorter cycles, usually three months, which allows constant alignment and obtaining a better vision of the company, being possible to evaluate if it is ready to go on and also correct errors that can appear halfway.

In addition, the well -defined Okrs provide more attention and clarity, which will allow the whole team to start thinking jointly to how to promote growth in a step that you can support, that is, look first – with the aim of having a minimum basis for expansion – and therefore starting to search – thinking about ways of expanding and which markets it is possible to present.

The truth is that, more important than growth, it is to be able to support this growth. It is useless to want to embrace the world if you don’t have enough resources. Therefore, to be able to maintain a possible growth, the company must be able to continue to guarantee the quality of services and products, as well as to continue evaluating the people who are part of the process, otherwise they have “shares of shares”, as they say in retail sale.

In this sense, before advanced and finish to take a bigger step in the leg, it is necessary to ask you: do we have a structure to climb? Is our team prepared and engaged? Do processes support this new moment? We know where we want to go and why? The answers to these questions will help you avoid hasty decisions that, instead of strengthening, indebted the company.

Growth requires courage and maturity. We must have a discernment when the company can advance another house on the Council or stay in the same place. And being still does not mean that you are stagnant, waiting only for the right time to go on, which is much better than to go back. Remember: the best growth is what brings positive results and evolution, not unnecessary problems and risks.
