Operations Management Philosophies:
Over the years I have established several Operations Management philosophies.
1. A company is a group of people working together for a common goal. This common goal is always to be as profitable as possible so that the Owner and the Employees benefit.
2. Teamwork is only beneficial when there is One Team within a company and everyone is a part of that One Team. When more than one team gets together they naturally compete.
3. Everyone is someone’s customer. There are customers that are traditionally “External Customers†but in my management style you have “Internal Customers†that need service and information just like the External Customers. Each department within a company has someone that is their Internal Customer.
4. You can complete any task that you set out to do as long as you utilize the Three I’s.
a. Information – Gather data to prove the task
b. Information – Organize the data so that you understand the task
c. Information – Disseminate the data in a manner that is usable to all associates
5. Company Risks needs to be:
a. Managed
b. Transferred
c. Insured
6. Cost Control is what determines a company’s fate. I believe that without a good Cost Event Tracking System (Cost Control) your Company will fail.
