Scenario
Smart Software is a company focused of software development based in Sydney, Australia. The CEO of the company is planning to grow the profit of the business by 50% next year; therefore, he would like to make a change plan to achieve the target. The plan will focus on some main areas: customer service, marketing, improving the current software based on customer feedbacks and fixing bugs.
He will introduce regular continuous improvement meetings. In the meetings, feedback from customers and partners is analysed to find ways to improve. Each idea for improvement will be assigned to a manager to ensure it is implemented with a report back expected in the next meeting.
The CEO will also introduce Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for staff where they will be rated on work completed, feedback from management, other staff and customers. These KPIs will be used to reward good staff and target counselling for underperforming staff. Each staff member will need to have KPIs set and agreed. There will be new procedures introduced including a dispute resolution procedure for this to provide a fair system. All staff will need to be made aware of these procedures.
