are the same regardless of whether a publication is large or small,
paid or controlled, local or national, or owned by a for-profit or a
not-for-profit organization. It’s a matter of having the correct
positioning and strategy and operating plan. Effective implementation
requires systems that allow the staff to work effectively as a team with
minimum of waste motions and distractions. To use football lingo, it’s
basic blocking and tackling. Assuring that the staff is executing the
fundamentals is the key to successful start-ups and turnarounds as well
as ongoing established organizations. I can help you to develop and
execute the game plan that will produce results.” |
