Do Something!

Many firms coast along - especially if they are (at least moderately) successful. They work on the principles that "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" and 'Doing nothing is easier than doing something'.  


However, being productive snd competitive is more like running a race.  If you coast, sooner or later someone will overtake you - and then it might be too late to react and respond.


Similarly with technology.  Technology moves on.  If you don't move with it, you get left behind. 


So, keep an eye on your environment and changes that are happening, or are about to happen.  Keep an eye on your competitors.  But perhaps more importantly, keep an eye on your internal systems, processes and working practices.  What opportunities are there for positive change?  How can you improve those systems and processes? How can you improve the skills of your workforce?


Then do something. By all means plan it carefully and introduce it slowly.  But do it!
