10 WAYS TO IMMEDIATELY INCREASE PACE ACROSS YOUR BUSINESS

By: Stuart Cross|Published on: Feb 11, 2013|Categories: Growth, Leadership,
Simplicity|

All the executives I work with want to increase the level of pace across their
organisation. But pace is not simply about getting people to work harder –
although this can be an important step. Here are 10 ways you can drive pace and
growth in a systematic way without the need for any extra working hours from by
your people.

 1.  Do fewer things and focus on those that will have the biggest impact on
     your business
 2.  Clarify accountabilities and establish exactly who is accountable for each
     of your priorities
 3.  Simplify your organisation and, in particular, reduce the number of senior
     managers such that each manager has clear ‘blue water’ from his or her
     colleagues in terms of their role and responsibilities
 4.  Push down decision-making responsibilities as close as possible to the
     people interacting with your customers
 5.  Clarify your strategy and ensure that everyone across the business can
     summarise your top goals and your key strategic priorities
 6.  Review your own behaviour to ensure that you are demonstrating pace in your
     decision-making and actions
 7.  Reward behaviours ahead of results. Who is demonstrating an ability to work
     cross functionally and take prudent risk to increase pace, even if the
     results aren’t immediate?
 8.  Don’t sweat them small stuff, and ensure that both your time and your
     team’s time is centred on driving new growth rather being focused on fixing
     small problems
 9.  Align organisational and personal goals, so that everyone is focused on the
     same results
 10. Follow-through on your priorities, hold your team to account and deal with
     poor performance up-front

Which of these actions could help your organisation improve its pace this week?
