Overcoming Key Roadblocks to Business GrowthTBA Member Jaap Siekman is a seasoned Business Coach with 30 years of prior experience in Engineering & Operations Management, Project Management and Continuous Improvement (“LEAN”).In this episode Jaap discusses the common roadblocks he sees preventing businesses from growing their business. Many businesses, he says, lack a defined long-term vision, making it difficult to establish strategic goals. Issues like low productivity, bottlenecks in processes, and delays in delivery can prevent a business from scaling.Many businesses don’t have a clear organisational chart or accountability structure, leading to confusion about roles and responsibilities. Employees and managers alike can resist new processes or strategies, especially if they’re used to working in a certain way.
