Set Your Organization on a Route to Prosperity ATLANTA - In tough economic times, companies can be unsure how to move forward as they face major changes. In the new book, The Formula - Building Competitive Advantage (now available through AuthorHouse), Robert L. Sullivan III, a certified management consultant, helps leaders learn and understand the key relationships within the operating environment to take the next steps. Challenged with economic uncertainty, companies must learn to define and execute a winning strategy. From the CEO to a service center manager, Sullivan shares proven techniques and shows readers how to build competitive advantage in their respective markets. As business operations grow more and more complex, organizations need to become competitive at the service center, or departmental, level, he writes. Companies must move to a flatter, leaner and more bottom-to-top entrepreneurial approach, operating at the service-center level, rather than the traditional top-down format. This requires business professionals to run service centers and abandon the “caretakert” roles most managers play today, Sullivan says. “The new leader will have to BE someone to his people rather than DO for them,” he adds. “Don’t fall into the trap of doing something and fail to define just what it is that needs to be done.” Sullivan provides readers with a clear understanding of how to improve profitability and how to make money by managing “key” relationships. He also offers insight into developing goals and planning for success. Sullivan is the founder and president of Effective Management Systems, Inc., an Atlanta-based consulting firm, formed in 1986. Since starting his company, he has studied declining and failing companies. His unique ability to analyze an organization and sort problems from symptoms permits him to create and develop winning game plans for his clients. |
