Manage your Enterprise Business naturally, the same as your Personal Business
Our personal business is the way that we organize and manage our daily life
Each of us has our own personal business that must be organized and managed just to get things done in our daily life. Our personal business is the same as an enterprise business in “investments in capital as solutions of worth utilized for costs and effectiveness of performance to produce value and quality in results”. We invest in capital such as a home, auto, belongings, purchased supplies, magazines, personal improvement, services, and other solutions the same as an enterprise. We utilize this capital as specific solutions in our performance to produce our personal results, such as a good nights sleep, arrived at destination, clean house, investment income, healthy body and mind, cleaned suit, etc.
We organize our personal business naturally
We have things to accomplish, whether it is a prepared breakfast, entries in a “to do” list, items purchased, or going out for a good time. Each thing we accomplish is a result. We do not consciously think of them as results, we just accomplish them naturally. The results we produce are distinct outputs or accomplishments that can be described and counted.
In order to produce results, we must perform or execute some actions ourselves or through automated means. Performance itself is not enough, we must utilize some of our personal capital. We naturally utilize our personal capital in performance, such as our time, a personal capability, knowledge, reusable equipment, a process, consumable supplies, tactics, and our money or credit. We use capital as the appropriate capital solution such as a recipe, specific supply items, equipment item or tool, instructions, etc that are qualified and needed to produce the result we desire. We organize these capital solutions in our residence so that we know where solutions are when we need to perform to produce a result. All of us organize our personal business results, performance, and capital solutions in the same way, because it is the natural way to organize.
We manage our personal business using common sense
We manage our personal business to produce high value-quality results. When we use our capital solutions, we incur costs. When we produce a result, we create value, whether it be something completed, a purchased item, or personal pleasure. The value of the result must exceed the total cost of performance, in order for us to be happy with the result. The quality of our life is in the results that we produce. The effectiveness of our personal performance, and the qualifications of the solutions we utilize, determines the quality of the result. If we burn the toast, we reduce the quality of our breakfast. Certain solutions have a capacity, such as a two-cup coffee-maker, that limits the volume of the results produced.
Each of us manages our personal business by managing the capital solutions we utilize in our performance to produce results. When we complete one result, we move on to the next result. We do not think of this as business management and we all manage our personal business the same way, because we are using common sense.
In fact, we have long been using Result-performance Management to organize our personal business naturally, and to manage our personal business using common sense. We can use this natural knowledge and experience to improve the organization and management of the enterprise we work for.
We cannot use natural organization and common-sense management at work
We do not contrive arbitrary organization and management structures to lay over our personal business, and then operate and manage our personal business by following stipulated processes, rules, and procedures. But, this is what the enterprise we work for does.
Once the enterprise lays an organization structure over the business, the business can never be managed. The enterprise lays additional process, system, account, administration, and management structures over the business. Each structure is arbitrarily contrived, so that people must learn how to use the structure instead of working naturally.The overlaid structure prevent capture of actual business data and real business management. It is this failure to manage the business that causes the problems incurred by banks and corporations that led to the economic crisis.
Results are defined as performance, making results accomplished, performance actions executed, and capital solutions utilized difficult to distinguish. So, the results produced by the business, the capital solutions available, and the solution implemented and utilized to produce a result are not identified or defined as sets. The enterprise does not understand the actual business. Management does not have direct information on the actual business, to manage through common sense, so management and governance is through rules and regulations that must be learned.
We need to organize and manage our company business, the same as our personal business
But when we are assigned a business result to produce, we revert to the natural method of organizing the capital solutions we need to use in our performance to produce the result. The enterprise business could be simple and natural by defining the business by the essential results of value that must be produced, the investments in qualified capital solutions needed, and the performance utilizing solutions to produce a result. Then management would have actual business data on result volumes, value, quality, and value-added; performance capacity utilization, costs, effectiveness, and contribution to value-added; and capital capacity, investment amount, qualifications, investment return, and worth. Management then would be able to organize the business naturally and manage the business using plain common sense.
