Competing and Winning in the 21st Century Market Place

Is Your Company Equipped with the Most Important Skill of All?

Business, like life, is a game.

How well you play both of them will very likely mean the difference between…

Success and prosperity

and

Failure and unhappiness

The problem is…

you haven’t been taught how to play the either of these games

…not really

Sure, you’ve muddled through (like most of us)

But think about it for a moment…

Imagine what you’d be capable of if you were actually taught how to play…

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

LET ME EXPLAIN…

Imagine two tennis players.

Olivia and Madeline.

Both are fit, strong, well-coordinated, and love the game.

Olivia, however, is well trained.

She’s been taught how to serve, return, volley, and hit forehands and backhands with precision by a professional tennis coach.

She knows exactly how to position herself on the court, what to watch out for, and the shots she needs to play…

to WIN

This is because Olivia’s actually been taught how to play tennis, by a professional.

As a result, when she steps on the court…she knows what she’s doing.

Now, imagine her opponent, Madeline.

Madeline has loads of enthusiasm, some natural ability, and can hit a ball back and forth.

She’s played a bit of tennis, too, and can make some good shots.

But she’s never actually been taught how to play tennis: how to serve, return, volley, position herself on the court etc… 

Consequently, she’s not terribly consistent and, by her own admission, is a bit ‘all over the place’…

Now, consider the following question:

If you were asked to place a bet, on which of the two tennis players described above, would WIN a match between the two, on a typical day…

Who would your put your money on?

Yep…I’d put my money on Olivia as well…

THE REALITY…

Like Madeline…

…you’re probably playing the game of business (and life, for that matter)…

without any training in how to actually play

This because you almost certainly haven’t been trained, by a professional, in how to make decisions in a way that:  

• Dramatically increases your chances of GETTING WHAT YOU WANT (personally, professionally, or organisationally). It could be that sales target you want to reach…that client you want to land…that bonus you want to get…that promotion you’re seeking…that status you want in the company…that contract you want for the business…that additional revenue stream…that extra bit of market share that will take the company to the next level…

• Gives you and your business a MASSIVE STRATEGIC ADVANTAGE in your industry or sector. This is because most people and organisations simply have not been trained in strategic decision-making

• Gives you the confidence to take necessary risks and make bold decisions with the knowledge that you’re MAKING THE RICHT CALL...because you know what you’re doing, why and how what you are doing is going to get the result that what you want (and can clearly explain it to others)

• EMPOWERS YOU personally to help your family, friends and others you care about make the right choice when asking for your advice – the one that solves their problem and/or gets them what they want (You’ll be the one who’s genuinely able to say: ‘Don’t worry, I know exactly how to handle this’)

• PREVENTS you and your staff/colleagues/company from making the kinds of avoidable, bad business (and other) decisions that you can end up spending a life-time regretting…

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

THE TRUTH…

Every day, you’re making decisions in work, business and life.

Hundreds of them.

In all honesty, many of these decisions won’t really matter…

But…

Some of these decisions will have profound consequences for:

• Yourself

• Your staff

• Your colleagues

• Your family

• Your customers and clients

And the consequences of some of these decisions will be irreversble

For these decisions…frankly…

…you need to be making the right calls

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

THE PROBLEM…

Unfortunately, as a human being, you’ve evolved to make decisions in a radically different environment to the one you’re operating in…

(think small, localised groups or communities for most of human history)

Indeed…

…the level of complexity you and your colleagues/staff are dealing with in today’s hyper-competitive commercial environment is, quite literally…

…unimaginable to your ancestors…

True, our brains are amazing (really), but…

our brains have evolved to solve problems that bear little resemblance to the one’s you’re currently trying to solve

As researchers have discovered (over and over again)…

…this ‘mismatch’ between the kinds of basic, localised problems of survival that our brains have evolved to deal with…

…and the problems you’re dealing with daily…

…often results in decisions that, while they make sense to us, are…

…highly unlikely to solve our problems or get us what we want.

For an example of what I mean, watch the short video below…  

STILL…

WHY SHOULD YOU CARE?

Because, as a human being, you care about something…

You want something…

It might be growing your business, increasing revenue, ensuring the well-being of your staff, helping your family when they need the right advice, advancing your career, improving your income level…

It could be anything…

…because it’s about getting what YOU want…

You’re also afraid of something, and there are things you want to avoid.  

Herein lies the beauty of becoming a strategic decision-maker…

In exchange for a comparatively miniscule amount of both money and effort, you can quickly and efficiently develop a skill that:

(a) You only have to learn once

(b) Can be used to dramatically increase the chances of getting (literally) whatever you want

(c) Can be used to help you to respond to/solve literally any problem

(d) Can help to prevent you from makng bad decisions…

FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE
