Diffusion Entrepreneuriale

Processes and Projects and their significance in the Business operation and development

In the worldwide market two basic “Building Materials” about Management and Business Organization are constantly being developed, especially over the last decade. At the same time, the related guidelines, techniques and tools for the effective use of these materials are being developed. These two “Building Materials”, which are Processes and Projects, are becoming the main elements for the effective operation and development of Companies and Organizations.
Entrepreneurship diffusion at all Executive levels in a Business – Organization can be implemented through the effective use of Processes and Projects.

Correspondence between Technical Constructions and Companies and Organizations

As Iron (constructional steel) and Cement were the two basic Building Materials that brought revolution to construction many decades ago, in the same way Processes and Projects are the two main “Building Materials” that bring revolution in Management and Business Organization. There is a close relation between the way Construction Companies manage their two basic Building Materials and the way Businesses and Organizations manage Processes and Projects. The way Construction Companies plan and build a construction bears a remarkable resemblance to the way that Businesses and Organizations “build” their operation and development (see the following table).

Each Executive, depending on the level of hierarchy, will become accustomed mainly to the part of the rules, guidelines, techniques and tools that he/she is related to, as it happens nowadays with the Executives of Construction Companies.

What Entrepreneurship Diffusion is

The “maturity” of an Organization and its development perspective in the market is mainly defined by the range and the quality of the ENTREPRENEURSHIP.

The main elements – skills that define Entrepreneurship are:

  1. Recognizing opportunities and priorities
  2. Effective resource distribution for opportunity exploitation
  3. Perspective reassurance (short-term plans should not destroy the perspective)
  4. Frequent follow-up of the course of actions and timely corrective actions, when required

Apart from Entrepreneurship as a gift for a “genuine” Entrepreneur, it can also be boosted in an organization by using simple methods, tools and techniques. We can direct the Executives/Managers think and act as Entrepreneurs by establishing certain and simple methods, tools and techniques. Consequently, Entrepreneurship will be continuously supported in the Business.

The prerequisites of the Entrepreneurship Diffusion

There are certain prerequisites that contribute to Entrepreneurship diffusion in the Organization and make “ENTREPRENEURSHIP EVERYWHERE” an everyday practice in the Business. These prerequisites are:
  1. The first two (at least) Executive levels can determine the Business – strategic objectives in relation to a cause – effect analysis (Balanced Scorecard & Strategy Maps).
  2. The first three (at least) Executive levels can combine the Business objectives with Processes and Projects, with the right priorities.
  3. All Executive levels can manage Processes and Projects effectively.
  4. The performance management system and the evaluation system are closely connected with the effectiveness of Process and Project management.
 

The importance of objectives determination through Strategy Maps in the different levels of the Organization

The use of Strategy Map as a tool, supports the Executives:

  • To recognize opportunities and priorities at all levels based on Management
    directions
  • To direct and coordinate correctly the Departments, Offices, Operations and levels of Executives through the agreement and orientation of the objectives in the different levels and operations
  • Lead to a Balanced Scorecard for the effective resource allocation and the rational opportunity exploitation with perspective.

The Map “obliges” the user work on objective determination taking always into account the cause and effect relation and the perspective.

 

How we maximize performance through the specific Processes, Methods and Tools

  • Delegating Processes & Projects to all Executive levels and to as many Executives as possible
  • Connecting Project Management Process with the Business Plans and the Business Objectives
  • Connecting the Business Performance Management System to the quantity and the quality of Project and Process Management

Procedures for Implementation and Relevant Tools
a) Project Management Procedure
b) Process Management Procedure
c) Business Planning Procedure
d) Performance Management Procedure

 

The prerequisites from Entrepreneurship Diffusion to Outstanding Performance with Perspective

The improvement of an Enterprise or Organization’s Intelligence, which means improvement of the Intelligence of its Management and Executives, is a preceding and more substantial objective for the improvement of the organization than the implementation of processes, tools and techniques.

Success and lasting period of success does not depend on how fast or how cute you climb the ladder (techniques and experience). It mainly depends on which wall you choose to put the ladder on every time.

The right wall can automatically be chosen when the Executives and Managers implement the appropriate framework of Principles and Values.

Outstanding Performance and Sustainability depend not so much on the quantitative dimension of time management, meaning where and how I distribute time, but mainly on the qualitative dimension.

The qualitative dimension of time management refers mainly to understanding the effects of Time as well as understanding the effects of the Absence of Time in the Intelligence Process and as a consequence in Material - Sensorial Creation.
