Description

If you think performance counts now, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet! Jim Shaffer, who pioneered the results-driven approach to managing communication, will explain what others have done to become indispensable to their leaders, because they are over and over again putting money in their leaders pockets. Literally! Jim’s lively and provocative CD will reveal what companies are doing to surgically shift their priorities and focus on those parts of the organization that can drive performance results most. Using real case studies, Jim will show how companies can generate two- and three-thousand-percent returns on their internal communication investments. He’ll explore the Three Stages of Organizational Communication Maturity and explain how a department can attain increasingly higher levels of operating and financial performance.  

Learn How: 

  • FedEx, Owens Corning and others have created significant performance improvements with returns on their investments exceeding 1,400 percent
  • Honeywell cut its billing cycle by 10 days and eliminated 1.4 million process steps while improving quality
  • Sara Lee reduced waste by 18 percent in five weeks at one its bakeries

 Learn Why:

  • Dave Brown’s CEO said: “We are absolutely convinced that there’s a competitive advantage to be gained by engaging our people through better managed communication. We’ve seen it pay off already in measurable improvements in costs and productivity.”
  • Owens Corning’s senior vice president of manufacturing said, “We’ll take as many 700-percent returns as we can get.”

Discussion Topics:

  • Why the communication function in every business must measurably increase the value it adds—or die
  • What other companies are doing about it and how they’ve moved from an output to an outcome-generating organization
  • What you can do next to take your department to the next level on the maturity curve
  • What questions to ask to identify what matters most to your business
  • How to set up an outcome-based project that generates huge financial returns
  • How to measure your impact and your return
  • How to shift your work from low value-adding to high value-adding
  • How to get junk off your plate, because it doesn’t contribute to the bottom line
