Doesn’t matter how small your organisation, or how big, sometimes everyone needs a fresh perspective.
The world is changing, whether you’re small, or whether you’re big. Or even somewhere in the middle. Sometimes to understand the world better, we need to think how others think.
To a small or medium-sized company, opportunities are everywhere, if you think and act bigger. Governments, local authorities and corporations are looking to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to drive innovation. But for SMEs to make the most of the opportunity, you need to talk a similar language to your larger siblings, create compelling business models, and deliver industry-leading service levels. This has to be done with the same certainty of a larger company, but without losing the agility and innovation that makes small so great!
To a large company, learning to think like a smaller business, or simply thinking faster or clearer, also demands a change in perspective. Acting like a leaner business is surprisingly difficult, but the rewards are clear – faster decision making, quicker seizing of opportunities, a greater sense of purpose and motivation, a positive change of culture. Perhaps even more fun every day?
