As the CEO of a creative marketing and communications company, it's a challenge to convince our team members that following good processes will free up time and energy to be more innovative.

Thanks for the tribute. I'm glad my comment resonated a little. The concept of a 'systems-dependent' business is definitely not new. Yet, so many lose site of the simple fact that the purpose of a business is to serve a customer. A business is a 'System of Systems' whose purpose it is to deliver on the PROMISE that a company makes by 'design' or default to those customers. Every single business is making this Promise whether they articulate it or not. The key is to design the delivery of that promise into the business. This is where systems insure continuity, etc. One of the key roles of a Leader is to learn to think systemically and recognize that all systems within a business work, 'Ideally', in unison to achieve this goal. The roles of vision, mission and the 'softer' components of messaging simply reinforce this mindset. Leaders understand intimately that their job isn't to go to work in the business every day but to 'Work on It'. The business IS the product. All my personal best, Mark Great post, Mike!

I view processes as the transmission of your business, the essential - and often the missing - link that delivers the power of your organization to your customers. Like any transmission, processes need constant attention and fine tuning to improve their effectiveness and efficiency. Excellent post, Mike.

Process: "is the natural extension of values, vision, mission,..." I started really perking up! I think everything hangs on values, vision, mission etc. Starting the sequence of ideas with values also hits the nail on the head. I just had to stop in and say thanks again for your work. I don't like thinking about processes. I'm going to think about them today and see what processes need to be modified or implemented.
