In the current WB Business Climate Index India Almost half of all 107 Indian managers surveyed report that the Corona-related sales losses are forcing them to cut costs in India. However, due to the geographical distance (and lack of transparency), they have difficulty making an objective assessment of their organizations in India and are therefore unable to implement the necessary measures. Travel restrictions still make it impossible to be on site for audits and optimizations with the necessary frequency.
Remote management & optimization from a distance
Therefore we, from Dr. Wamser + Batra, the established management method Gemba (Walk) further developed for the dynamically changing challenges in India. Thanks to our methodological expertise and on-site process experts, we can uncover inefficiencies and quality deficits in India and identify optimization potential for our customers in virtual conferences and on-site audits, without you being on site yourself.
To find out more about this process and our method, contact us Volker Klosowski. He and Michael Enderle, an expert in business process optimization, recently discussed successful business management and productivity increases in India with company representatives. To receive the recording of the webinar, please contact us.
As Michael Enderle once again summarizes well here, the critical success factors are:
- Intercultural competence and open mind.
- A powerful (and loyal) team on site that is empowered to act actively and can draw on the (management) resources of the parent company.
- Standardization is the key to preventing the same mistake from being made again.
- You can only achieve what you can measure.
- For sustained business success in India, continuous effort and iteration are essential. “Monitoring” and consistency are key – but based on mutual trust (and not control)
