The Hidden Dangers of Focusing Excessively on Operational Efficiency, With Filippo Passerini

Filed in Podcasts, Previous Episodes on January 2, 2024

Bringing constant innovation to business processes to weather an incoming disruption involves having an “open market mindset.” An open market mindset ensures that organizations continually question the status quo, take educated risks on business process evolution, and develop contextual intelligence. Yet, efficiency-alone solutions can eventually hurt overall business process effectiveness.

Pushing cost efficiencies at the expense of customer experience, or separately from the overall business value, is a mistake. For example, call center services across industries have evolved over time from onshore to offshore to automated. In the process, some have become virtually inaccessible or have lost their human touch. Therefore, business process design must deliver both operations efficiency and customer satisfaction.

Filippo Passerini shares decades of experience to share tangible steps for revolutionizing business operations.

Tune in to hear Filippo’s thoughts on:

  • Why transforming business processes (like Finance or HR) is important to winning in the marketplace
  • Why most business transformation programs fail — and what can be done to avoid it
  • How to proactively keep business processes across the company from becoming obsolete
  • What leaders must do to create a culture of change
  • How to measure progress along your transformation journey
  • And much, much more!

Do Less, Live More, and Breathe Easier With Holistic Productivity, With Lisa Zawrotny

Filed in Podcasts, Previous Episodes on December 19, 2023

Is it possible to do less, yet achieve more? Yes! When you approach productivity the right way, you’ll get further, faster, with less effort and without burning out.

Have you tried those popular “tried and true” productivity approaches only to be let down??

You’re not alone!

Those productivity approaches aren’t designed with multi-taskers and multi-passionates in mind. (Too limited!)

Those productivity approaches encourage burnout by focusing on doing more, which is impossible for caregivers. (Dangerous!)

Those productivity approaches make you feel like something is wrong with you. (Not so!)

Worse yet, adding more to try to fix what’s already too much is creating overwhelm, not reducing it. It’s time to change that.

Lisa Zawrotny is a Productivity Strategist + Accountability Coach and is here to show us how to do less and live more.

Tune in to hear Lisa’s thoughts on:

  • What does it actually mean to be productive?
  • Why do we need to care about Energy Management versus Time Management?
  • Why do serial entrepreneurs especially need to approach productivity differently?
  • What’s one step to help us declutter our lives?
  • What are the steps to creating a to do list that doesn’t trap you?
  • And much, much more!
