Learn moreThe financial health of your organization depends on it! Bernie Haffey’s Cutting Through is a comprehensive exploration into the nuances of the key high performance management systems that turn good companies into great ones!
SUCCESS BEGINS WITH A SYSTEM!
Doctors, mechanics, pilots … What do all of these professionals have in common? Simple: each operates within the framework of an established set of principles that guides all they do. Just as you wouldn’t build a house by first tacking on a roof, you can’t expect your business to flourish without understanding the underlying mechanisms that drive it.
You need a foundation, an order, a system.
Cutting Through is the blueprint to discovering and optimizing that system. The ideological quicksand of leadership trial-by-fire is gone. The best businesses of tomorrow will need to be equipped with a robust management system that drives performance from the ground up! How do you get there? Here’s a hint: you can’t intuit it; it’s going to take some work.
Eliminate, simplify, and optimize your internal processes to achieve breakthrough business results!
Bernie Haffey started his professional career as a physics teacher and ice hockey coach, which shaped much of his approach to business and many elements of his book Cutting Through. Upon graduation from business school, he worked as a product manager in Hewlett-Packard’s Medical Products Group before ascending to high-level roles at Mentor Corp.; Summit Technology, Inc., where he assumed the role of Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer; and Intralase Corp., where he held the same roles, EVP and CCO. From there, he successfully served as President and CEO of two venture-backed start-ups, NDO Surgical, Inc. and Nexis Vision. Haffey now runs Haffey&Co. (www.haffeyco.com), a management consulting firm that has supported more than forty organizations.
