Presenting a Potential Profitable Productivity Project

One of the hardest things to do is to convince a group or a board of an organization that you can increase their productivity by streamlining their organization. One of the reasons this is so difficult to do is because many of the leaders of the group pride themselves on their organizational ability and what they have created.

You as an outsider are trying to convince them that you have a profitable product, strategy or plan that can help them save money in their organization and improve their productivity. On one hand you are telling them you can help them and then on the other hand they see it as if you are telling them that they are not very good at what they do, even incompetent for not doing it sooner.

This is why many of them feel upset and this is where presenters get into the problematic situation of "not invented here." If you give a good presentation you will have charts and graphs showing how your productivity will increase the profitability or the productivity of their organization.

Still, we have all heard that quote; "Figures lie and liars figure." And you must realize that it is hard for anyone to accept that someone outside of the organization that doesn't know the inner workings of the company or group can come in and streamline much of anything because they just don't understand, they can't possibly or so they think.

Now as a presenter you probably realize that you can actually help them increase their productivity and you also know that you've done it for countless organizations before them. This is why the most important thing you can do is concentrate on your past successes and explain to the group how you achieve these incremental increases in productivity.

Any wise board of any organization is interested in results, all you have to do is prove that it works and with your strong track record you will win. Please think on this.
