Business Series
Six practical ways to look at the same business.
The Business Series is where ConsultiQ writes about how growing businesses actually work. It starts with the 6P Framework — our way of looking at the whole business, because a business isn't a collection of separate departments and everything affects something else.
The six dimensions
The six Ps give us six different ways to understand the same business.
-
Principles
What do we stand for?
The beliefs and behaviours that shape decisions, culture, governance and the lines you're not prepared to cross.
-
Purpose
What are we trying to achieve, and why?
Where the business is heading, who it creates value for and what its owners actually want from it.
-
People
Have we got the right people doing the right things?
Capability, accountability, leadership and whether the organisation can work without depending on a handful of heroes.
-
Process
Does the business work reliably without constant heroics?
How work moves, where it slows down, what depends on memory and whether your systems make good work easier.
-
Performance
Do we know what's working, what isn't and why?
The financial and operational signals that tell you what's happening and help you decide what to do about it.
-
Perspective
Are we looking far enough ahead?
Opportunity, risk and the changes that could affect what the business needs to become next.
