What if the consulting company doesn't understand our enterprise?
Business owners often ask: Do consulting companies know my business better than I do? Can they solve problems that I can't? You are in the enterprise every day, and you know the enterprise very well, but you often lose your judgment. This is a fact.
At the same time, business owners are usually proficient in and familiar with the business of the enterprise, but not proficient in management. And this is precisely the strength of consulting companies. Management must be combined with business, so how can management consulting companies quickly understand the enterprise? Through research! The methods and skills of investigation are very important! For example, the Great Wall strategic consulting is an interventional consulting method, which goes deep into customers. A powerful consulting company can find out the key problems of the enterprise within one week and thoroughly understand the management status of the enterprise within one month, while an ordinary professional manager needs about three months to enter the working state, which is the role of professional research. How do enterprises choose the right management consulting company?
Management consulting industry originated in Europe and America, and it is a new industry in China. China's enterprises are developing faster than any other country, but the foundation is not solid. Smart entrepreneurs must have thought of these problems. Strengthening enterprises with the help of external brains is the first choice of many bosses, just as doctors can't cure themselves. It is unrealistic to solve the problem by yourself! Just like a person is ill, when an enterprise encounters a management problem, it looks for a business management doctor. But at present, most management consulting companies in China are bluffing, which leads many bosses to "break their hearts" and spend hundreds of thousands or even millions on a management consulting project. In the end, it was just equivalent to buying a report, which didn't really help the enterprise solve the problem. So how should companies with "problems" choose powerful consulting companies?
Enterprise management consultants believe that the focus of management consulting lies in implementation and promotion. Imagine, no matter how gorgeous the packaging is, what is the role?
When choosing a management consulting company, we should pay attention to the following questions:
1, don't be misled by glamorous brands. Many brand consulting companies sell solutions.
2. Pay attention to the practical experience of management consultants. In China, many management consultants have no real business management experience, and many have never worked in factories. This kind of "consultant" should be used with caution.
3. Management consultants also have special expertise like doctors. He should recognize the problems that his company has to solve and find the corresponding consultants accordingly. If a management consultant can always solve everything, then he may not be very professional.
4. For management consulting of production (manufacturing) enterprises, it is best to find practical management consultants with factory experience. The mentality that enterprises should avoid in management consulting
First, the value of consulting services is exaggerated or expected too much. It is the mentality of many enterprises to expect too much from the results of consulting services. It is believed that the excellent performance of enterprises should be the natural result of consulting services. Many enterprises even bet their fate on a consulting project, often hoping that consultants will turn Gan Kun around and completely change the face of the enterprise.
Second, quick success and instant benefit, only numerical results theory. It is believed that performance speaks for itself, only looking at performance indicators, and the value of other services is not affirmed, and the requirements are quite short. Some customers think that the consulting service should be effective within a few months, otherwise they will be impatient. Complex enterprise reality, industry reality and many objective reasons are difficult to predict, so it is not advisable to talk about success or failure with short-term performance. In fact, it is difficult for any consulting company to have the final say with the enterprise.
Third, too self-centered, unable to listen to severe advice, arrogant. Although many enterprises are looking for consulting services, they still have a very self-centered mentality. Such enterprises only look for consultants to verify their ideas, just to let consultants implement their ideas. The greatest value of consultants is to look at problems from their own relatively objective perspective and help enterprises find problems. If you lose your own position and only help enterprises implement each other's ideas, the success rate of such consulting projects is also difficult to guarantee.
Fourth, I don't have my own opinion, just listen. Due to the superstition of consultants, there is another kind of enterprise that goes to the other extreme, that is, all the good suggestions that are listened to by consultants are closed, and some enterprises even hand over the implementation to consultants to solve. In the short run, it seems to solve the temporary problems of enterprises, but in the long run, it is also unfavorable for enterprises not to cultivate their own teams, not to exercise their own teams, and not to build their own management capabilities.
Fifth, over-reliance on large companies and brands ignores who is involved in the project. Many enterprises rely too much on big consulting brands or well-known companies in the industry: from a certain point of view, it is undeniable that well-known consulting companies have talent advantages and experience advantages. However, because each consulting company has different consulting projects, different needs and different professional knowledge, it is not necessarily a good thing to rely too much on a big consulting company. Enterprises should look for suitable consulting companies according to their actual needs, and should not rush to the hospital.
