There are a few sure-fire ways to tell if your business is dead. How many of these do you recognise . . .

1. Have you stopped putting your customers first?

These people pay your salaries. Doing the stuff you think is important over the stuff they think is important will result in them leaving. It’s that simple.

2. Are you standing still?
If you find competitors are doing the stuff you can’t, be afraid. You need to run with the pack (at the very minimum).

3. Are you working in silos?
Every department needs to work with every other department to be successful. Why on earth wouldn’t every company allow it?

This is how you can tell if a business is dead, but what are the vital signs that show it’s still alive?

Connected?

Flexible?

People-focused?

I’m interested to hear your thoughts
