NEW MANAGEMENT
Challenge - Election
● Have no clue what to do
● New environment
● “Kidalovo” as a style of life
● No win-win, yes pay –pay
Agreement for 2015 with new
management ● Don’t interfere for one
year
● Advices, not orders
● Strict KPI to achieve
● Deadline - January 15,
2016
● Active board participation
BOD
● Active board with new C involvement
● Analysis of each month after financial control
● Strategy, control, advice and help
● Company structure transformation through the
BOD
Challenges
● Possibility for one big fault disregarding of its size
● Lesson told or taught? Of course – lived
● MBA vs real life: big difference
● Values are provided not through talking about them but through
practicing
● Big attention to talented people – they are the first to be fired during
times of turbulence
● Sooner or later each private company that has more than 300 people
becomes a government
● Old management was wrong, new is right
● I like that I dislike
Post Mortem Analysis after 2015 ● Not achieving Goals of 2015 :(
● Mistakes in EO management
● ½ hour interview with more than 60 people in the company
● Analysis of mistakes
● Forgetting about our main product – projects
● Multi level structure is too complicated – too high in the clouds
● People are key factor to success
● Values are not buzz words. Values are actions and verbs!
● Management was not result-oriented
● Absence of punishment – no lessons, no results
● Changes in management
● Up or out :(
Action List 2016
● New management team. Attention to all direction!
● Changes on the top
● Strong KPI for every manager
● Hard talks with all team-members
● Analysis of sales & delivery machines. Spotting gaps and eliminating
absence of responsibilities
● New sales organization
● Culture of projects
● Responsibilities and execution
● People are key factor to success
● Values are not buzz words – values are actions and verbs!
I trust ELEKS team
● My OWN mistakes
● If I’ll return – all done is gone
● New board with external members
● Accepting mistakes
● Going into the future
● Strategy for the next years
Thank you!
