Providing low-cost elements such as the opportunity to be entrepreneurial and involved in decision-making, along with a focus on giving back to the community, are as important to employees today as health benefits or a 401(k). Boards see the negative impact of a culture crisis on the value of their companies.

Make-good efforts cost more on the back end than doing things right on the front end. Research shows the by-product costs of poor quality are high for any business, up to 40 percent.

Have to make cuts everywhere else to pay for rising production costs. Ethics and standards… those are for chumps. Once the PR crisis passes, things will get back to normal. Our human resources department takes care of that. Just took a vacation. Got to send the kid to college (or some other personal reason).

Goal attainment leads to ethical behavior. Cost containment. Human resources development. Without goals, one never really succeeds…he-she merely averts-survives the latest crisis. You’re highly dedicated, talented, resourceful and give customers what they cannot really get elsewhere.

Reacting to a Crisis or Emergency. Apply Big Picture thinking toward all facets of the organization… to reduce costs of companies responding to problems with small-picture treatments. Without visioning, other functions (marketing, human resources, financial, production, quality control, public relations, etc.)

Position your request as an investment, not a cost. Base Budgets on Value… Not on Cost. Readily measurable values: Time and cost of product development-service delivery cycles. Inventory costs. Cost the benefits of the improved cash flows and diagram the improved work flows that contribute to them.
