Welcome back to a new season of the Transforming Insight podcast!
This week you can tune into episode 1 of Season 11: Perfecting Insight’s processes.
How much value does your Insight team place on its ways of working?
How much time does it spend crystallising best practice and establishing effective and efficient systems?
Unless we pay attention to critical processes we can’t induct new recruits, set common standards, or buy back our own time so that we can work as Insight leaders, not as Insight managers without whose involvement nothing can happen.
So the 7th P of the Insight Leader’s Playbook is for Process.
Process might not always sound the most exciting topic. But the way we approach it can often make the difference between a productive, effective, efficient and successful Insight team, and a group that is doing its best to survive another spin around the corporate hamster wheel.
To quote James Clear from his bestseller, Atomic Habits: “We do not rise to the level of our goals, we fall to the level of our systems.” That’s true for organisations and for individuals, and it’s also true for Insight teams.
Key topics discussed in this episode:
- The critical importance of process
- Project-orientated processes
- Enabling processes
- Buying back our time
- An Insight team’s operating manual
- Navigating the adoption gap at HMRC
