Corporate accountability at In an age of restructuring, downsizing, reorganizing and a general re-evaluation of purpose, mission, corporate destiny and direction, a concern for employee as well as organization productivity is at an all time high.

I am often asked by my corporate clients how to improve sales or management or overall organization productivity. It is never a simple answer, as you can see from the above list. And that is not the complete list of issues that must be considered when you are evaluating productivity.

There are several key issues to consider:

1.Employee, customer and market loyalty.
2.Management style.
3.Corporate culture.
4.Communication patterns and systems.
5.Corporate direction.
6.Competence levels of employees.
7.Competitive posture.
8.The perception(s) of your organization in the marketplace (vendors, customers, competitors).
9.The attitudes and perceptions of your organization by your employees.
10.Your commitment to employee training and development.

A lot to consider? Yes. But, if you want a productive organization and not just pay lip service to productivity, I suggest you spend some thinking time about these as well as other issues that impact your organization.
