Business Diagnostics
Business diagnosis is a process of working backwards to identify reasons businesses are not doing as well as expected, or it could. It is a process of identifying the symptoms or causes to a problem. Whether it is an overall snapshot of the business, a close-up of its financial health, an inventory of its talent or the size of its carbon footprint, someone somewhere will have designed a business diagnostic tool to analyze it.
Business owners that feel they have reached a plateau, or are finding profits declining, may need objective insight into some of the aspects of the business to see if there are areas that may need improvement or diversification. As Business Analysts, we look at the business as a whole- what is the financial situation? How efficient are operations? Have the marketing needs kept up with the changing technology? Can the business use upgrading in systems or software?
We can provide the sober second look at different options and opportunities, assist through Consultant Advisory Services, or help find a mentor through Mentoring Plus to collaborate with the owner and find opportunities to grow.
Anyone in need of business assistance is more than welcome to contact CBDC-NOBL, we will be happy to help.
“ Having just completed the LAE ten-week Project Management Essentials Course, I can say whole heartedly that it was an extraordinary experience. Instructor Lynn MacKinnon taught this course with a level of professionalism and courtesy where she welcomed every student into the class with warmth and a smile. Our group was made up of business professionals involved in a wide variety of industries both small and large whose primary goal was to learn the necessary skillsets that could be applied to our respective businesses. To say this course met our expectations is an understatement as the class discussions allowed us to take the curriculum and apply it hands on to our respective business cases. Since completing the course I have had the opportunity to apply it to both our family business and to a large scale project with my corporate employer. I highly recommend the Project Management Essentials course as it allows you to breakdown your project to its fine points and build a foundation to start your ideas and goals. It allows you to plan your budget, set your target milestones and develop a step-by-step process to completion. This course should be the baseline for any business owner or entrepreneur.”
