The Ops Authority

Do you have trouble defining how you will best function in an organization?

One of the things in our recent Director of Operations (DOO) training that we were showcasing, was some of the ways we help our students get results. One of the results that students desire is to understand the systems, tools and processes that have worked for me, so that they can implement these in their companies and businesses right away and get their ROI.

One of those tools is the "Levels of Operations", which we previously discussed in Episode 70. I am going to re-share this info again today because I believe this is helpful for you to understand if you are on track to becoming a DOO, and so you can answer the question if the Director of Operations certification program is right for you now.

This tool is going to be helpful for you as you are looking for progression in your own career, but it's also helpful to use in building the teams that you are responsible for.

Does your pricing reflect the value that you bring to a business as a service provider?

Today we are going to talk about how to price your services as an operator or a service provider. This question comes up often because we are always second guessing ourselves. I want to give you some guidance and help you ask the question, "Is what I'm doing today fulfilling to me?"

Have you been considering joining an organization as an employee rather than an independent contractor? Have you been thinking about approaching your current client about considering you as an employee?

Today I want to talk about the trend of people who are working as independent contractors inside of companies, who have the opportunity to move into an employee role. This shift is probably a byproduct of what we are seeing in the market and the economy, and the fact that being in business is more challenging as a whole.

We have developed a new tool called the T.I.E.S.

Are you wondering if a live event is worth the time and effort to attend?

I have just returned from Jordan Gill's annual event "Make Your Mark Live", and I wanted to talk about the interactions and conversations I had.

At the end of each year, I do an episode with some of my peers entitled "State of the Union for Service Providers," and this episode is going to be similar with insights about how the year is summing up for service providers.

How do you move into a leadership and strategy role in the businesses you serve?

Often, we get questions about how to become a strategic advisor or a strategic partner.

I have mentored and coached hundreds of women to become Directors of Operations (DOOs), who uplevel to the next best version of themselves. We take your hard skills and amplify them, but we also focus on the leadership component. We as DOOs have this leadership skill set, but often we don't tap into it because we don't have it laid out for us.

Today I'm going to share four steps that will help you to show up and lead strategically.

This episode is a replay, so for full show notes, check out Episode 147.

Do you stress at the idea of creating content and designing your whole marketing strategy around being visible on social media?
