Podcast Episode 11 – Let’s build the bridge?
Building the bridge? – one of the major reasons I am taken in to organisations is to help identify either a replacement software and/or service provider, but why? In this podcast episode I talk about one of the first things I try to do as an independent consultant to many OEM’s and manufacturers to reduce the pain and stress of making a change.
Before I do anything you have to look at the root of the problem – how do I get to the root, well I ask myself WHY? at least five times!
It may not seem that obvious to many, but the first thing I try to do is rather than replace an existing relationship, I look at how we can repair the existing one! In this episode I look at the three main areas where relationships fail and why as well as some of the irreconcilable differences that force a change of replacement despite my very best efforts. I also talk about the phrase I coined “Career Changing Decisions” and what this means and some anecdotal stories I have for you based on my experience.
