Organization’s Internal Strengths & Weaknesses and External Threats & Opportunities
Part – 11
(“Commonly Overlooked Aspects” – Deep-rooted Unidentified Areas and their Vulnerable Impact)
So far, we have discussed only two topics: (A) Business Systems and (B) Business Processes; however, there are Five (05) more topics are there and these are: (C) Business Environment; (D) Customers, Suppliers & Community; (E) The People; (F) Strategy & Vision; (G) Values & Culture.
So for now, the discussion was focused on these two issues only, and a little bit of description in (several parts) of these two topics will at least lend a hand to realize how vital the other Five (05) topics in the same category are for any business organization. But if everything is discussed together, the concentration of the reader can be troubled.
However, now we may frame a few questions on all Seven Topics to identify the awareness level and importance of each issue, separately; let’s start with Business Systems:
• Business Systems – How do you recognize how each element of your business is performing? Do you have efficient information systems that notify you which parts are functioning, and which are not?
• Business Processes: How efficiently do you get goods and/or services from the picture board to your clientele? Are your organizational processes equally efficient and effective? Are these factors focusing on continuous programs of development, and do you successfully communicate with all stakeholders?
• Business Environment: What do you recognize about the environment in which your organization operates – from political pressures to the state of the economy? How well do you realize your customers' needs, wants, demands, or aspirations?
• Customers, Suppliers & Community: How associated are you w your clientele, vendors, and the marketplace in general? Do you have any data on how satisfied they are in dealing with your organization? How efficient are you at attracting fresh clientele, whilst retaining existing ones?
• The People: How efficient are you at getting the correct people into positions, and then increasing their knowledge and proficiency so that you can exploit the contribution each makes to your business?
• Strategy & Vision: How sound does your organization plan for future opportunities? Do you have a vision for how your organization will expand and a diagram for how you will arrive at your targets?
• Values & Culture: At the heart of your organization are its values and culture. What do your values articulate about you (if anything), and do you have a culture/ way of life that appropriately supports your values/ principles?
It is unmistakable that the Dysfunction of these Seven (07) Factors is one of the biggest causes of assorted tribulations, and it is apparent from the elongated discussion that apart from initiatives of the organization there should be a few additional supports ought to be given to sustain a Wellness Culture of the Organization.
All the areas which have been stated previously have been integrated and operationalized in a practical way to analyze, measure and or evaluate the “Commonly Overlooked Aspects” – Deep-rooted Unidentified Areas and their Vulnerable Impact on an Organization and Disadvantage Level, one SPECIFIC TOOL has been created and this SPECIFIC DIAGNOSTIC TOOL is called – “OSCAR DIAGNOSTIC TOOL” – Developed By: Jayanta Baksi.
The “OSCAR DIAGNOSTIC TOOL” combines the Knowledge of STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT & BEHAVIORAL SCIENCE to provide a Methodical Assessment of an Organization’s Internal Strengths & Weaknesses and External Threats & Opportunities and its Level of Vulnerability of any Organization.
Data collection is the FIRST STEP to EVALUATE, and some Statements/ Questions will be provided therein QUESTIONNAIRE FORM; the Organization/Respondent will respond to the Questions or Statements, i.e. in QUESTIONNAIRE, and thus primary data will be collected.
The provided data will DEEPLY SCRUTINIZE pursuing Specific MATHEMATICAL FORMULA and METHODS and Evaluate RATIONAL, STRUCTURAL, RELATIONAL, COGNITIVE, etc Areas to assess the Work and Workplace Induced Dysfunction and its Level of Vulnerability of the Participant Organization and distinctively Portray in SEVEN (07) Points of Dysfunction Pattern and its Intensity: –
• (A) Business Systems
• (B) Business Processes;
• (C) Business Environment;
• (D) Customers, Suppliers & Community;
• (E) The People;
• (F) Strategy & Vision;
• (G) Values & Culture.
• This “OSCAR DIAGNOSTIC TOOL” focused on what the OUTCOME of the Participant Organization’s Tendency or Propensity will be, and how the Team Member’s Psychological, Physiological, and Behavioral responses are manifested, under pressure.
• In this “OSCAR DIAGNOSTIC TOOL”, a detailed Mathematical description of the Participant Organization’s Own inclinations will be described in the “REPORT” with a MATRIX FORM.
A careful observation of the said MATRIX will assist in clearly understanding the Participant Organization’s Own Inclination or Propensity. It will be suggested to mark those areas consciously as needed and as far as possible to eliminate/reduce Dysfunction more straightforwardly and effortlessly.
• And Thus, this “OSCAR DIAGNOSTIC TOOL” assists a lot to build up the AWARENESS of the Organization’s Internal Strengths & Weaknesses and External Threats & Opportunities of the Participant Organization/Respondent.
• The report will provide various avenues, tips, and knowledge on how these two issues (A) Business Systems and (B) Business Processes can be successfully implemented in the organization.
