Resolving Organisational Constipation: Insights from Dr. Mark Baker

Get Amplified

Ever wonder how internal operations can actually support and supercharge your sales efforts rather than hinder them?
Join us on Get Amplified with special guest Dr. Mark Baker, visiting fellow at Cranfield University. With a rich background in engineering, finance, and risk management, Mark shares compelling stories from his time at Unilever and his pivotal role in the London 2012 Speedo project! Discover the untapped potential of effective teaming and learn how bridging the gap between front office and back office can create a formidable competitive edge.
Reflecting on the 2003 Rugby World Cup and England’s T-C-U-P (Think Clearly Under Pressure) strategy, we explore how preparation and resilience can turn high-pressure situations into opportunities for success.
By integrating systematic approaches and digitalization, we uncover strategies that enhance decision-making processes and client outcomes, emphasising the importance of continuous improvement.
In our discussions on strategic leadership and vision planning, we tackle the necessity of stepping back from daily operations to focus on long-term goals. Learn valuable insights into effective delegation, the dangers of "organisational constipation," and the benefits of pre-mortem analyses.
A big thank you to Dr. Mark Baker for his insights on effective teaming and strategic leadership.
