“If you don’t know where you are going,
than you probably won’t end up there.”
- Forrest Gump
Best Practices #1
Start where you are.
• Don’t wait for the perfect conditions – they’ll never come
• Use the opportunity to assess where you are and where you want to go
• Use this starting point to work toward quick results and momentum
• Tweaking vs New Design and when it calls for each
• CSI at it’s best
Best Practices #2
Prepare Everyone.
• Planning and training; I mean training and planning
• The value of a good checklist
• Over communicate
• Using the RACI Model when necessary and working externally
Best Practices #3
Be Flexible.
• CSI by nature means investigating where you are, what got hijacked and
how it needs to change
• Customizing the training, the implementation, the processes
• The road isn’t always straight so enjoy the journey
Best Practices #4
Add Value.
• Get clarity on where the value is for your clients and the work ahead
• To your clients and to your employees – work to find the balance
• To the process and the CSI model
Best Practices #5
Be Human.
• A business approach that’s too process-centric holds risk
• People have the ideas and get the work done
• See best practice #2
Go Be Excellent
