Many of us have to work with others when it comes to continuous improvements . We know what we want in our heads, but in many cases the results just don't match what we're thinking. Asking for what you want can feel like an art at times, but if you get it right it can really accelerate how much change you can make in a period of time.

Our business processes often stay the same, unchallenged if they are producing the results that they were designed for... but never reaching their full potential. So, what happens when you ask one of your colleagues what they think about your processes?

Often we don't know exactly how we are going to make an improvement happen . We know the principle that we are going to follow, and we understand the general improvement activities that we need to undertake, but after that we can get a bit lost. A lot of people get stuck at this point, and their projects stall. It doesn't have to be like this.

When you are making changes in your business you will often have some hard metrics that you will monitor , to see if the changes are working out the way that you want them to. This approach, which is sound, can be complemented by the use of a human barometer.... What is a human barometer?

I have just uploaded a schedule for the Making It Happen  toolkit. This schedule will allow you, or your business, to sequence the tools to create a structured year of continuous improvement training and implementation.

To help you understand more easily what modules are within the Making It Happen toolkit I have now changed the login process so that you can view all of the module headings before you join. Access the free improvement tools here
