Breaking down silos at work and make collaboration happen is an issue many, if not most, organizations are experiencing. The Integrated Enterprise Excellence (IEE) approach provides a structural means for addressing this issue.
The Need for Breaking Down Silos at Work to Make Collaboration Happen
Have you ever seen a person or an organization doing whatever it takes to achieve their measurement goals, even if their success would be detrimental to another department or the business as a whole? Most of us have observed or experienced this form of behavior. This conduct is an unintended consequence of the traditional methods for creating performance metrics in an organization. This published article discusses how IEE’s non-silo metrics and improvement efforts provide a guiding light for organizations to bridge functional boundaries and move toward achievement of the three R’s of business.
One important aspect of the article-described methodology is the need to create an IEE value chain, which integrates functions where the organizational chart is subordinate to the IEE value chain. An IEE value chain describes what an organization does and how things are done, which is long lasting, organizational charts are not.
