To what extent does your organisation manage time well?

Is there sufficient focus and energy on what matters? How united is the organisation in its purpose? How united is the organisation in radiating the perceptions that it would like the customers to notice? How good is management productivity? To what extent is there a productive time culture? Are time bottlenecks and other horrors systematically sought out and resolved? How effective is the organisation at releasing energy in the right direction? Are the right controls in place to stop time being wasted? Where are the synergies that save time?

Most organisations like to think they work hard, work smart, work flexibly, and use time reasonably, but how do they really know whether there is more they can do?

The Productive Organisation is an organisational time improvement system that will provide some answers.

Be challenged by measuring how your organisation performs against some good practices. Identify how you might be doing and what you could be doing to make better. It is easy to make this approach relevant to your organisation, and finding just one action could repay the cost of this system many times.



How to improve the way your organisation manages time.

Time is the one resource that the top team can almost completely control, but how does a top team know whether they are doing this well or could do a lot better?

There is empirical research that suggests that only 10% of managers act purposefully with high focus and high energy - many of the others react, or detach, or worse. There is a lot of potential to do better from managerial practices to organisational practices. So how can you tap into this?

You could learn to improve what you do by benchmarking against some good practices.

Designed for top team members of organisations of 10 staff or more, our evidence based Learn what matters - Measure what you do - Improve how to perform system prompts you to think through how well your organisation uses time. Better still, it gives you a framework to improve what you do, and that means you can make some purposeful gains!


How it works

The system measures are grouped into sections as below. Each section contains between 10-25 measures that challenge what evidence exists that:-

  • The relevant business fundamentals, including the management of customer focussed purpose and perceptions, are in place
  • The Top teams own arrangements are time effective in running the organisation
  • There is evidence of Top Team leadership on using time productively
  • The relevant planning systems work well
  • Time controls for the organisation are appropriate and in place
  • There is a general system of work organisation, carried out by managers that is focussed on the best use of productive time
  • Communications promote good use of time
  • Synergies are built and reviewed
  • Specific practices direct organisational energy in the right direction
  • Technology is leveraged appropriately
  • Time Loss avoidance approaches are in place
For each of these, you can determine what is in good order, how you are doing overall, where your hotspots or time bottlenecks are and what really needs attention.

The greatest danger here is that you will assume you will do well. Your better assumption is that you will find more to improve than you might at first imagine.
