- Operations/ Supply Chain
We need to build systems, also we have to 'break' them. A paradox.
▪️ Set-ups (processes, systems, sometimes patterns) provide a comparatively secure working environment.
This is good for stakeholders to know what to do, what to expect and how to address common situations…
A business maintains steady operations through such stability.
▪️ However, as the world constantly changes, businesses must adapt, to stay relevant and seize new opportunities. While much attention is often given to Product Development and Sales, neglecting operations can hinder overall growth.
Operations don’t bring money to the table as it seems, like Sales.
It supports. More it spends.
If we step back, evolving operations or supply chain, actually supports a thriving business with less costs (more profits), more productivity, agility and profound intrinsic business energy.
Decisions need to be made between priorities, against the long-term picture.
Comes to supply chain/operations, two typical issues have been common:
1. Things were not set up to the optimum level initially;
2. Inadequate consciousness and effort to iterate, along the business development and world changes
High regards to all the founding teams who brought their businesses from 0 to 1 🫡.
If we stress the 2nd point:
☕️ What can we do to dynamically maintain the effectiveness of the operations, for supporting the overall business growth and success?
