Video Seminar: Turning Red Tape Into Blue Ribbon

By Bryan Whitefield
Errors in decision making cost time and money. As a minimum, the time and cost of rework or of undoing the decision. Sensibly, organisations seek to influence staff decision making to help maximise outcomes and minimise rework. This is primarily achieved through policies, processes and systems that are designed by enabling divisions of organisations such as finance, HR, risk and compliance. These controls are often seen by the producing divisions of a business as unnecessary red tape. The opportunity for organisations is to better align the producing and the enabling functions so that guidance on decision making helps to accelerate the business. To help the boat go faster, not put on another layer of ugly barnacles that increase organisational drag. Blue ribbon guidance is achieved when staff members have clarity on boundaries and the guidance is fit-for-purpose no matter the role of the end user. The result is faster and smarter decision making.
