Welcome to the Evolvepreneur (After Hours) Show
I am your Special Host Richard Wray
Join me today where we dig deep with our guests and get you the best concepts and strategies to fast-track your business.
My very special guest today is Michael Bremer ...
This episode discusses techniques for continuous improvement in organizations. It explores how setting clear priorities and visualizing important metrics can help drive better decision making. Limiting the number of proposals engineering works on at a time helped one company improve communication between departments and double their win rate. Michael also discusses the importance of leadership taking accountability for improvements and creating a safe environment where honest feedback is possible. Creating systems with integrity was highlighted as important for organizations to work effectively toward their goals.
