What is a Smartly Designed and Well Run Company?
Is your family important to you? Wouldn’t you like the means and way to support them in the best possible way? Is your inner well being important to you? Wouldn’t you be appreciative of a vehicle that will greatly enhance your opportunities to take care of yourself?
If you work for a smartly designed and well run company, you will be giving yourself an opportunity to provide the best care for your family and a means to take care of yourself as well.
For the sake of our discussion, if a company is operating with high profitability, yet the owner shows obvious disrespect towards coworkers and customers, it is not a well run company.
As at technician, just how in the world can you really tell if the company is smartly designed and run well? It starts with the owner and trickles down through management. At the core is what’s at the core of these people. Are they decent human beings working out honorable values in the workplace? You’ll notice that we attempt to explore this premise when we talk about the things quality managers do here at The Technician Shop. In subsequent posts we’ll attempt to reveal honorable values and talk about the humanistic things that quality managers are made out of. Today however, we are going to zero in on an invaluable resource that can show us what a smartly designed and well run company looks like.
I mentioned previously that if I recommend a book, it will be after I have given much care and consideration to its value to you, the technician. I so get that you do not want to get bogged down in books. I am thinking that your ability to provide for your family and the opportunity to take care of yourself are of great value to you. So, here’s a book that you need to get: HVAC Spells Wealth by Ron Smith.
Ron teaches contractors how to build a high quality and successful organization. Ron is from the HVAC business, so that’s what he writes about. But this book’s message applies to any type of residential and light commercial contractor.
Read HVAC Spells Wealth and learn how a well run company operates. Then compare it to yours. Ron’s book will also come in handy when choosing whether or not to accept employment from another contractor.
