Guide to plan your next move : The fight against COVID 19
The problem we are facing today has changed the entire plan anyone has had, the long term vision for any leaders in their respective organizations is not going to work until there are changes in their midterm plans. This has led and this will continue to hamper organizations that will not have a clear vision, planning, and communication within the organization.
Here We Will Be Talking Specifically About Restaurants And The Key Points The Restaurant Owners Need To Focus On.
Take time to plan for the uncertain future:
It is important that restaurant owners along with the key personal invest 10–20 percent of their weekly time in the planning activity. You need to have clear objectives for these meetings & discussions. Where do you see your restaurant in 5–10 years, what will be your plan of action post-crisis?
The focus should be on finding out the changes that will take place after the crisis. What people would like to have, how often they would like to go out to have dined inexperience, how to make sure that you are the one which people choose to come once they are free to come outside. How to make your customers and staff feel safe.
Try to figure out how your core business and current long term plan will work with the following changes that will come into the restaurant business. Do your SWOT analysis and eliminate the things which don’t make any sense in your portfolio now.
Work out your plan from top to bottom:
Reverse engineering from your long term goal to your midterm goal (post-crisis) to today will enable you to decide which areas require priority funding and more importantly it will allow you to think what can you do if you’re not overly focused on the current crisis.
The milestone you will be having in your entire plan will allow you to structure your way out of this crisis and will take you closer to your long term goal.
There is still some room left so learn and pivot:
After having a series of discussions you will be ready with a plan based on your experience and some expert advice from your concerned personal make sure you record all the activities while executing the plan. Because as amazing as the plan may look on a piece of a paper you are working on assumptions, you must be really quick in learning, accepting, and adapting. Use the data that you are collecting by recording your activities, make informed decisions, and see if those assumptions are true or not. In doing so you will be able to continue to shape your vision closer to reality.
Share your ideas and keep your team together:
While you are worried about your business your team is worried about the jobs they also have a lot to lose. Sharing your ideas will make the investors and your team believe in you and they will help you throughout the process. It will be great to have your team support behind you in these testing times.
