APPROACHES
Best suited for 1-2 store organizations. Our team of specialists will organize dealership staff for on-site meetings 2-4 times per year. We gather information and vision in advance from the ownership/management group to determine area of emphasis where the assigned DI facilitator can draw out the opportunities from within the team. The meetings can include review of financial metrics associated with the growth goals suggested in the advance planning sessions with leadership. A portion of the meeting can support training, process flows, even topical subject matter that the group deems relevant and valuable to their focus of development.
Best suited for multi-store organizations. Imagine bringing all your parts people together to learn from each other. Or, your service or whole goods people together in their own groups 2-4 times per year to review and improve operational, financial and management efficiencies centered around the growth of your business. Again, a blended approach of group facilitation, paired with occasional training components or financial aptitude training on their specific metrics associated with their part of the business. Imagine your departments understanding how they compare to their internal counterparts and to industry averages in North America. The opportunities for improvement are endless.
Best suited for multi-store organizations who are looking to further align both executive and mid-level management teams. Two to four times per year, a DI specialist well help define and facilitate a positive forum allowing management members to develop a cohesive and consistent management culture throughout a multi-store organization that is centric to your mission, vision and goals. Identifying weak links in process, financial and management aptitudes together will allow the development and proper planning to improve; impacting an organization’s culture and profitability. Blended sessions of peer-to-peer sessions with training and benchmarking, help hold team members accountable for growth, year over year. Having an outside facilitator with industry specific experience and knowledge lends to the credibility and buy-in with all members of the team, where sometimes without an external facilitator’s vision, programs driven from a top-down approach don’t always take hold.
