On Target — Bechtell '78

Product Description

By Michele Bechtell, Class of 1978

In all too many companies, once a business plan is created there is no systematic follow-up. The plan is filed and forgotten until it's time for the annual review-and the result is repeated failure to achieve goals and objectives. Seasoned organizational consultant Michele Bechtell draws on twenty years of experience to describe a straightforward, easy-to-implement, yet powerful set of business review techniques that will transform a traditional static paper plan into a reliable targeting process to produce quantum leaps in performance.

Bechtell shows how to:

  • Identify the priority measures requiring continual review,
  • Detect and respond to early warning signs,
  • Accelerate the change process to drive current objectives,
  • Link lessons from one cycle to the next for dramatic results, and much more.

Each chapter includes sample forms, tools, and graphics easily customized for your organization. If you are stretching toward a compelling vision, attempting to implement a strategy, or have tried and failed to achieve a desired goal or objective, this book is a must-read

On Target shows that by making business review an ongoing process, rather than an isolated event, you can achieve dramatic results at any level of any organization.
