Shaping the future with the future management process

The future management process

The FMP gives you the opportunity to use an integrated management tool and unleash untapped potential in your company. Starting from a thorough examination of the initial situation, we work with you and your management team to create a strong vision of business performance in the future while taking the strengths of the past and current challenges into account.

Linked to an efficient control system (balanced scorecard, BSC) and a proven excellence model (European Foundation for Quality Mangagement, EFQM), you are in a position to give shape to your annual planning and ensure the sustained focus of your company or department. The intelligent combination of the mission statement, BSC and EFQM together with our software tool allows you to achieve a new quality of business management.

Leitbildentwicklung

Mit dem Leitbild formulieren Sie ein längerfristiges Zukunftsbild, anhand dessen sich Ihr Unternehmen weiterentwickeln kann. Es entspricht den Besonderheiten Ihres Unternehmens und gibt Ihren Mitarbeitern Orientierung, indem es ihre Arbeit mit einem übergeordneten Kontext verbindet.

Ihre Aufgabe als Führungskraft ist es, Ihren Mitarbeitern geeignete Umsetzungshilfen an die Hand zu geben, die das Leitbild in operative Unternehmensziele und Maßnahmen herunter brechen und übersetzen. Ein fundiertes Leitbild ist maßgeblich für den langfristigen Erfolg eines Unternehmens verantwortlich. Gemeinsam mit Ihnen erarbeiten wir ein Leitbild mit folgenden Dimensionen:

• Vision – „Was wir wollen“
• Mission – „Was es nutzt“
• Grundwerte/Haltungen -  „Was uns antreibt“
• Kernfähigkeiten – „Was wir können“
• Rahmenbedingungen – „Was uns beeinflusst“
• Strategische Aktionsfelder – „Was wir tun

Balanced scorecard (BSC)

Key financial figures alone are not enough to manage a company. Soft factors, too, must be measurable and quantifiable, as well as presented in an understandable way so that they can be effectively communicated. You can achieve this simply by using a balanced scorecard.

You can achieve this simply by using a balanced scorecard. On the basis of the mission statement, you and your management team work out the strategic objectives and then establish the cause and effect relationships. With the BSC, you break down the main objectives until they are formulated in a way which allows them to result in target agreements and actions with measurable outcomes.

This makes it possible for you to strategically manage your entire area of responsibility and identify any need for action. Your employees are provided with a direct connection between vision and mission leading to a verifiable agreement [8] – making sense and fostering understanding.

EFQM model

The European Foundation for Quality Mangagement (EFQM) model has become a recognized instrument of corporate appraisal and focus in recent years. Its central premise is to achieve excellent results thanks to all-round quality.

Using a self-appraisal process, you have the opportunity to gain a full picture of the general state of your company or department at a defined point in time. This picture gives you valuable feedback on the effectiveness of processes across the organization and is a key driver of improvement.

The underlying principle of the EFQM model is based on nine criteria which are either enablers or results. Five “enabler criteria” cover what your organization does and how it does it, while four “results criteria” cover what your company achieves. This makes it possible for you to compare your company with the best in the world.
