Listen Later

I am finishing up a series of podcasts featuring – Your Best Work, The Best Way process.

You can download the Flowchart of this process here: https://millermarketingandtraining.com/work-with-me

This is a process to clarify your vision – Your Best Work, and then reveal all the work that makes that vision a reality – And Then…Do That Work the Best Way.

And today we introduce The Best Way – and the Best Way is Systems.

The title of this process was inspired by an Edwards Deming quote

“It’s not enough to do your best, you must know what to do and then do your best.” – Deming

The module we are starting today – The Best Way –  is where you document your systems

It’s not a system unless and until it is written down!

A flowchart is just one way to document a system – there are dozens of ways – and I’ll teach them to you in the next couple of episodes

Introduction to YOUR BEST WORK:

Your Best Work module has three steps:

  1. Becoming a systems thinker
  2. Matching Work Type to template type
  3. The STO Creation process

    4. This episode is about becoming a Systems Thinker

    7 Advantages of a Systems Thinking

    1. Systems preserve the original intention – The Vision – of the business owner
        • The vision that you have of exactly how you want to serve people is clear.
        • Think of a CHEF who creates this masterpiece meal – it is his vision of how it would look, taste, etc.
          1. Systems allow the vision to be scaled. You can share it with others and the vision can grow.
              • Without the Recipe system – it would have to be the Chef doing all the work – all the time
                1. Systems allow the customers to have a Predictable Experience
                    • Same amazing meal Every Time
                    • You create CUSTOMER Loyalty
                    • Business depends on – and only survive IF customers keep coming back!
                      1. A system allows you to make improvements.
                          • Incremental improvements make the vision better and better
                          • Efficiency to Eliminate waste
                          • THIS creates more profits – growing the top line = more customers and the bottom line = more profits
                            1. A system enables you to create something truly remarkable
                                • Doing the same work over and over creates Unique Expertise – you begin to see opportunities that don’t come with doing something only once or twice
                                • You are serving people in meaningful ways – and they love it and keep coming back for more.
                                • You are different – better than anyone else. Differentiated
                                  1. Systems enable your vision to be accomplished by less skilled people
                                      • You break the system down into steps and chunks that can be taught to others
                                      • If your business depends on superheroes you do not have a sustainable or scalable business model
                                      • Ordinary people – doing extraordinary things with your systems
                                        1. Systems allows your Vision to happen without you doing the work
                                            • Scale your business, Create Free time and do the work you love
                                            • You are the inventor – the visionary – But not the technician
                                            • Probably you should not be the technician – others can do it better than you – over the long haul.
                                              • ...more
