A dozen reasons to pat yourself on the back this Christmas

Every 12 months it rolls around...almost sneaking up on you and then POW...it's here. A new improved version of the last 12 months cleverly disguised as next year! Before you launch headlong into it spend some time reflecting on successes, failures and near misses and make time for giving yourself a pat on the back.

Take the time to write a list of successes for the last 12 months and then plans that you may have formulated for the next 12 months. Spend at least 15 minutes and see if you can list as many things as possible that you've been proud of achieving and then those items that you perhaps didn't get to or that you want to achieve next year. Some topics may be:-

Systems improvements
Growth in revenue/profit/units/productivity
Staff retention/turnover and expansion
Innovations
Additional products/services that expand your offering
Training & professional development of employees and yourself
Company milestones
Culture shifts/changes for the better
Acknowledgements/awards
Changes of direction
Decisions that paid off
New customers or the "sacking" of painful ones (80/20 rule)
more...

Acknowledging your own success and setting goals for the future is critical to your business, your employees and yourself. Planning for the next 12 months and beyond is also a vital element of your business' ability to grow and prosper. Schedule a planning session with the key people in your business and using the headings above list the things that you would like to aim for next year.

At Transform Business Systems we have the tools available to assist you with your systems documentation if this is a project that you would like to achieve soon. We can make is easy, efficient and value for money. Call us to find out how.

What's next for TKO?

2007 has been a year of rapid growth for TKO. There have been thousands of companies trialing and implementing TKO during 2007. Many of them have or are beginning to experience the benefits of systemisation in their business. We have had many cases of outstanding achievements this year including several companies who have achieved quality assurance and accreditations of various standards as well as successfully applied for and won tenders and in many cases were complemented on the professional level of their policy and procedure documentation.

Version 4.4 is due for general release soon meaning that all existing and new users will have access to the latest technology, features and enhancements to ensure that their business manuals are exactly as planned. In 2008 several more programs will be available ensuring that your decision to purchase TKO will also mean that the project will get finished and the outcomes be realised.

The team at Transform Business Systems will be on a break from 1pm 21st December and returning 9am 7th January. Thank you to the hundreds of companies that have become our clients during 2007. It has been a pleasure and an inspiration working with so many people who are committed to excellence in their business.

We wish you a safe and happy holiday season.
