A NEW SEASON

First Reaction/First Glance

Our beloved Bengals prepared for six (6) weeks leading up to the new season opener and their preparation earned them a good start, but unfortunately an unlucky loss. Hopefully they can remain focused for the rest of the season.

Here at TP Mechanical, our management is preparing for a new fiscal year and the opening bell rings on October 1st.

This year we will be forced to look and prepare for business in new and innovative ways.

The Learning Process

In this season of new business, we must draw up some new plans. Because most of us have never experienced times like this, our plans must start with innovation. In fact this season will be a true test for all managers.

They can no longer rely on what has worked in the past. In other words, they must change their daily routine and begin focusing on creative ideas which will prepare them for the here and now as well as the future.

Improving for the Future

The Bengals prepared for the Broncos by anticipating how their defense would react to the plays the coaching staff drew up and vice-versa.

In business we have to take time and think how our customers want to purchase our services. I believe they are looking for new flavors or recipes, that at the end of the day produce the same results, but for a more competitive price.

As you go to the drawing board, we must now take the whole team into the room and leverage everyone’s new ideas and thoughts. We must prepare for a tough season that lies ahead.

So we must ask ourselves, are we ready to be innovative and play for the win or stand on the sidelines and just watch the action?

As always, please feel free to respond with your thoughts or ideas.
