“It’s Always the suppliers fault”. “It’s Sometimes the customers fault”. “It’s Mostly my employees fault”. “It’s Never my fault”.
Any business owner that has said those word is probably not in business anymore. As a good business owner or entrepreneur you know that the buck stops at your desk.
Excuses and pointing the blame away from yourself and your decisions are not productive or profitable.
While most business owners know this they still make lame excuses when it comes to Certification.
Lame Excuse #1 – I do not need Certification:
The Business owner does not realise that without certification there are no processes and employees are not performing to their potential.
Lame Excuse #2 – There is too much paperwork:
No one likes extra paperwork but if that was the case then why do you do BAS statements?
Try saying that about your Tax Returns?
How about those pesky Invoices to customers so you can get PAID?
Paperwork can be tedious but Certification paperwork is a one-time exercise that has long lasting benefits.
Unlike Taxes that happen every year.
Lame Excuse #3 – I do not have the time.
A good decision maker (which every business owner needs to be) knows the old saying that ‘if you have a task to complete in 60 minutes take 50 minutes to create a detailed plan and 10 minutes of precise action’.
Making time NOW to go through the certification process will save many hours for yu and your employees in the future.
Lame Excuse #4 – I do not understand Certification.
If you said that about everything you would never learnt anything new.
