PCB & COMPANY Back to Basics: A Series on Private Company Transformation in the Middle Market Middle Market Turnarounds: Does Your Leadership Team Have a “Performance Management Cadence?” In our last perspective, we discussed how entrepreneurs who are successful at taking their company through multiple stages of growth typically have a strong financial acumen and a desire to regularly review goals and financial performance. They hold their teams accountable to results. Their Common Trait This class of founders shares a common trait: an intense, religious focus on reviewing the performance of the company every Monday and monthly results soon after the end of the month. Conversely, mid-market companies that “suddenly” find themselves failing don’t have this religion. Instead, their management library is filled with excuses as to why they cannot capture, report on, and respond to performance data. For founders with a viable offering that is in high demand, this scenario represents great opportunity that won’t require significant effort to realize. It may require, though, that the founder undertake a style adjustment or delegate / transition this part of the leadership role to another executive. Investment groups focused on driving value through transformation of troubled companies have the religion. They have learned that metrics based performance management is a key to success and that addition of such a framework can set the stage for producing dramatic results. The Impact of “Flying Blind” Sales & Operations enthusiastically hitting record numbers for a loss generating product. Applauding the team for beating production goals while scrap/quality issues silently grow. Realizing the need to downsize and rationalize costs a quarter too late. Inventory grows as sales decline and purchasing goes unmonitored, resulting in excessive funds tied up in unsalable product. Enthusiasm for lifeless sales leads is allowed to continue, with no adjustment to forecast. “Suddenly” running out of cash, obtaining more, then having to ask again. Our Point of View Set a calendar of key meetings, such as: o Monday Sales Pipeline o Monday Operations and Metrics Review o Monthly Budget to Actual Review o Monthly Close Review Collectively determine and then communicate the standard agendas, ownership/accountabilities. Prepare standard materials and tracking sheets to distribute at least a day prior to each meeting (rough cuts are OK for first few sessions). Agree to and publish actions (and due dates) determined during the meeting and start each successive meeting following up on open actions. Don’t allow excuses for not attending. Establish Skype accounts for all members and conduct the meetings over group Skype if physical attendance is not possible. Mandatory in person sessions at least monthly. Expect surprises in the early stages, but don’t judge. Focus on developing open communication and determining actions to resolve the issues and prevent recurrence. Speed to improvement is critical, but if you try to tackle everything at once, you will fail. Prioritize the metrics and actions to gain momentum. Visibly applaud successes. Jointly identify the key metrics that drive performance in your business. Capture current and historical performance and set short, medium and long term goals that align with your EBITDA targets. Track, communicate and post the metrics with trend lines weekly. Hold separate corrective action meetings with relevant players for areas that are off target. Don’t delay. If you don’t have a similar cadence in play, you’re flying blind. The absence of such a rhythm will only serve to deepen your risk. Future perspectives will discuss the need to have a budget that is realistic and is used as a means to manage the business daily, weekly, and monthly to set goals and drive accountability. Philip C.
