Are your costs running ahead of budget and you're looking for cost reduction ideas? Perhaps your customers aren't so happy and buying less from you so you're looking for business improvement ideas? Have you seen an increase in people leaving, probably then your profit is down and you need performance improvement? Or could it be that you need more management time? That you wish you could delegate effectively?

No doubt you have tried to fix it with a variety of business or employee performance improvements? Perhaps you've called in management consultants, done some business process re-engineering but still haven't achieved that profit improvement? You've made sure everyone is working hard? Spent cash on training but that just hasn't worked? Everything you try just seems to get bogged down and fails?

You have this very strong feeling that there is something wrong. But people are saying things are ok; perhaps it is just a difficult patch?

You are right to trust your instinct. The chances are your people are not motivated, not inspired to achieve by the context in which they are working.
