A Shifting Business Environment

I’ve spent a good part of my life studying economic successes

 and failure . . . above all, I’ve learned that everything

takes a back seat to innovation.”

Tom Peters, American Writer and Management Expert

   

 

As I see it. . . . . . . .

A shifting business environment

 

More of the same old same old

 

The business environment has shifted . . . . and you are now living and operating your business in a whole new world. In this new business environment you are facing new challenges . . . . new opportunities . . . . and new rules.

 

With the shifting business environment . . . . you have reached a fork in the road with your business. The choice of what road to take will impact your future . . . . and your level of success that you will achieve. 

 

You can choose to continue to do . . . . most of the same old same old which is based on using the same old . . . . and outdated techniques and strategies. Using these outdated techniques and strategies . . . .  will not allow you or your business to keep pace with the new business environment. As a result you will continually to fall behind the business curve.

 

What will result . . . .  is you will no longer be able to remain competitive. Unless you make the adjustments to meet the challenges . .  . . of the new business environment . . . . you will no longer have the right tools to succeed.  

 

Or you can look at the new business environment . . . . and adjust your thinking to meet the new challenges . . . . by acquiring the tools that will create a strategic business advantage.

 

One of the tools that will make a big difference in the level of your future success that we will achieve . . . . is innovation.

 

You have to push past doing more of same old same old . . . . and grasp the spark of innovation . . . . and break away from playing what I would call following what everyone else is doing.

 

Success is in creating a degree of separation in your business . . . . and being seem as an innovator in your profession is a big part of that degree of that separation. Being a market leader . . . . is not in doing what everyone else in doing just because someone else is doing it. An innovator steps away from the pack . . . . and will try new and innovative methods and strategies to succeed.

 

Doing more the same old same old will become the anchor that pulls you down into the abyss of failure and away for the light of success. Stand strong and take an innovative approach to your business and you will find that when your standing strong . . . . You’ll stand out.   

 

In a shifting business environment you have to stay ahead of the curve . . . . to stand out.

Hi Lou!

A shifting business is like going to school in the fall as a student and feeling awkward about changing classrooms and teachers. Adjustment isn't easy, but it's a necessary part of growth!

Good Morning Lou - these are universal truth.  What you di in the fast will not get you to where you want to go in the future.

Business and the world at large is always in flux or constantly changing. We always have to be cognizant of those changes so that we can adapt.

Hi Lou Ludwig I thinkwe all need to learn the Peter Principle. Too many get promoted to the level of their incompetence.
