Shaper of Business Excellence. In this video, I&#8217;m going to give you the number one prescription for the Silo Syndrome. <\/p>\n<p>As you know, all the advice I give you is based on my 25 years of experience helping different organizations to improve. The main thing that I see as an obstacle for improvement work is this Silo Syndrome. That is where everyone is doing their own thing. If you&#8217;re going in to do an improvement work, you see that everyone is doing their own improvement work. <\/p>\n<h2>When all Departments Do Their Own Improvement Work<\/h2>\n<p>So one departments they are improving. The other department they are also improving, but they don&#8217;t talk to each other. And in an earlier video I mentioned this as, as we say in Sweden; that we asphalt, or paving, our cow paths. Because everyone will pave their own ways, maybe improving a little bit, but they will not reach the huge success that we could if we work together. <\/p>\n<p>It is like one organization is having a view scope. You know when we were kids, or maybe even as adults, we sit in a boat, we have a view scope and we look underwater, we look down and we see the bottom,  so one friend will say \u201cOh the fish, you see it?\u201c and you will say &#8220;Yeah, I saw it. I saw it. It was here.&#8221; But your friend that is over there, or you in there, you&#8217;re also sitting there and watching it. &#8220;Oh, here comes another fish. I saw it. Yeah, there&#8217;s a lot of fish down here,&#8221; <\/p>\n<h2>Missing Out on the Big Picture<\/h2>\n<p>But I don&#8217;t see the same thing as you do and you don&#8217;t see the same thing as I do. And in the organizations that we have, the fish is going around here. Those fish are our customers in the business, so we don&#8217;t see the whole flow. <\/p>\n<p>We just see what we see through this little view scope that we have, which is our silo, so the prescription for improvement work then, that I was promising to give you. That is first of all make a workshop where you collect as many people that you can in management positions and as high up as you can in your organization.<\/p>\n<h2>My Prescription for Preventing Silo Improvement Work<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>\nRun a workshop on a high level\n<\/li>\n<li>\nLook at the end-to-end process\n<\/li>\n<li>\nLook at the improvements from the customers\u2019 point of view\n<\/li>\n<li>\nBonus: Your process might stretch outside your own organization\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>During that workshop you go through the whole business. You go through and you look at the end-to-end processes that you have, you make sure that everyone shares that view of your organization and when you have found the end-to-end processes in your organization, you look at it from the customer&#8217;s view. <\/p>\n<p>So first of all, make a workshop as high up as you can into organization. Second of all make that, or during that workshop, you&#8217;re looking into the end-to-end processes that you have in your organization. A third of all you&#8217;re looking at it from the customer&#8217;s perspective.<\/p>\n<p> And a bonus one that I can give you a prescription. Is that the process, the end-to-end process. It might not just be within your organization. It could be outside your business. It could involve other businesses as well because if you&#8217;re looking in that view scope in your department, or someone in their apartment, and someone else looking at in their department. <\/p>\n<p>The same is when you&#8217;re looking at the whole process flow, and needs that the customers have, only from your business, your organization&#8217;s view. It might be higher up. It might be a larger view scope, but it&#8217;s still just one silo where the fish is swimming from one side to another and you need to see the whole flow. <\/p>\n<p>So that is my tip for today and my prescription to you for having, if you&#8217;re having it, which I think most all of us have, this silo syndrome. So good luck and let&#8217;s go shape our business to excellence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi there, Matts Rehnstrom here. Shaper of Business Excellence.
