Menu"Chaos"in business management and operates:how measured,analysed?
Business management has many intertwined aspects,which constantly interacts with each other,rising the complexity of it,as a 'system'.
Answers
Chaos here may suggest the business is behaving randomly, causing disorder/ confusion, increasing the difficulties in managing it.
If the operation is a system, then the management is a system to control the operation with the purpose of achieving desired business objectives.
People find it hard to manage Chaos situations because they find challenging in making effective decisions due to a high level of uncertainty and insufficient time to respond properly.
Simply improve the measurement system or analysis skills will not improve the managing of business at all.
Pertaining to this topic, I help my clients (400+ companies so far) in 3 major aspects:
1. Understanding framework to speed up analysis capabilities and include designed model to review Chaotic situations (all chaotic situations had been taken into consideration). => This improves clarity fast and deep.
2. Decision-making process (design regular and flexible business clinic and decision making models to guide people on how to make difficult decisions (i.e. tough challenges). => This speed up plans/ strategies and keep the company aligned to its ultimate business goals while effectively decisions to address the impacts from the chaotic situations.
3. Redesign and implement business agility (different company requires a different level of agility) to improve the company's ability to respond to chaotic situations. => This allows the company with sufficient capability and capacity to react fast and avoid unnecessary self-imposed constraints.
I founded a pro business consultancy in 2018, the chaos is evident for all types of business. For most startups, I advise them to clearly write down all the key aspects of their business and their working relationships. To improve quality, you must maintain the M.E.C.E method while jotting down the various tasks and their relations to the business. This helps with the operational plan. For performance measurement, a data management tool must be used (try smart sheets for coordination, information management & file sharing). For detailed steps on the measurement & analysis please schedule a call. Can you please specify the mission statement, the company size, the products and the annual turnover as a start ?

If I have a business idea for a large company, how can I give it to them and mutually profit, without them just taking the idea and squashing me?
Probably not the answer you're looking for, but companies have so many unimplemented ideas that the likelihood of partnering to implement someone else's idea is really low. And besides which, the idea is not something that has much value in and of itself. If you're passionate in the idea, build it yourself. That's the only way you can have leverage.TW

What advice do you give to a 16 year old entrepreneur with a start up idea?
First, hat tip to you for being a young entrepreneur. Keep it up! If you have the funds to build out your MVP, hire a developer and possibly a mentor. If your idea is marketable, you don't need to give up equity by bringing in a co-founder. If this is your entrepreneurial venture, I would recommend you do retain a coach to help you see all the things you may not know. Have you already done your SWOT analysis? Have you identified your target market? What is your marketing plan? What will be your operating expenses? There are lots of questions to ask. If you would a free call, I'd be happy to help you in more detail.

Is changing my personal name (or use another name) good for business?
I lived in the US for 28 years before returning to Russia. My name is not easy for Americans to pronounce (anything outside of the Anglo-Saxon standard names seems to fit that category). Short version of Stanislov is Stas, so I went with that for them, but I never would change my name. Take pride in the name you were given and the culture you came from. Your parents gave you that name and you have it for a reason. Just because others don't pronounce it just right is no reason to throw away your culture. Oh and Misha is the short Russian version of Michael, if you americanized it, it would have to be Mike.SK

How can I make a million dollars?
First, I agree with Chad in that the pure pursuit of money is unlikely to render anything significant. By using a monetary value as a primary goal, you're only diluting the real drivers of success: passion, crafting great customer experiences, building an incredible team and culture etc. That said, making $1m isn't that hard. :) I love this thinking by Amy Hoy and that's how I would go about making $1m: http://unicornfree.com/30x500. Using that logic, this is what I'd do: * To earn $1m in a year, I need to earn +- $80k a month. * To earn $80k a month, I need 1600 customers paying me $50 per month. * So what can I build that could attract 1600 people to pay me $50? * Or, what could I build that could attract 400 people to pay me $200 per month? This logic works on two drivers: * Cumulative revenue and growth. So SaaS works best in this regard, as you only need to focus on having new signups that are greater than your churn. * Building something that people are willing to (really) pay for and going for quality over quantity. If you are building something that sells for $5 pm, you'll need to sell at much higher volumes (which are tricky). In terms of doing that, these are the areas of my business that I would prioritize: 1. Build an awesome team that do things they're passionate about. 2. Prioritize customer experiences above anything else. Do everything in your power (regardless of whether it can't scale) to add value and help your customers. 3. Build a brand and reputation that has long-lasting value.AP
