First Step, Critical Diagnosis

Profit360's proven methodologies were implemented, and the assessments discovered that;

  • The functions of Marketing, Sales, Operations and Finance were all operating in separate silo's and not as a functional team with common objectives.
  • Most essential elements for effective management systems were missing.
  • The roles of each member of the Executive Team were not defined in a way that would achieve results.
Within the business there were many good strategies to improve profits, however the inability of the Executive Team to work together needed to be dealt with first.
