The business owners who really should read this note: The essence of organizational development decoded through quantum mechanics' 'observation,' 'entanglement,' and 'superposition'—what the owner sees creates the company's reality
What the owner sees creates the company's reality: The essence of organizational development decoded through quantum mechanics' 'observation,' 'entanglement,' and 'superposition'
The business owners who really should read this note are these types of leaders
The 'next step' needed for companies that have a philosophy but cannot change their frontline operations
When you continue running a company, there comes a time when the same problems return in different forms over and over again.
There are policies.
There is a philosophy.
It is talked about in morning assemblies.
There are store managers and supervisors.
Yet, the frontline does not change as expected.
What was said seems to have been understood in the moment.
But after a few days, it returns to how it was before.
The staff does not have bad intentions.
In fact, many are quite serious.
However, the question 'What should I do?' does not decrease.
When the president steps away for a bit, decision-making stops.
Sales have not collapsed, but the company's momentum is sluggish.
There are not a few business owners who harbor such a sense of discomfort.
This note is exactly for those people.
This note is not intended for business owners who lack a philosophy
To be clear, this note does not teach 'how to create a philosophy.'
It is actually the opposite.
There is a philosophy.
There are policies.
What the president wants to value for the sake of customers is quite clear in their own mind.
Yet, the frontline does not change.
It is aimed precisely at business owners who feel the pain in that gap.
In other words, the target audience is not 'business owners who are not thinking about anything,' but 'business owners who are thinking, but have not been able to translate that into the power of the entire company.'
This is a major difference.
The challenge for companies without a philosophy is that their direction is ambiguous.
On the other hand, the challenge for companies that have a philosophy but cannot change their frontline is that the philosophy has not been translated into action.
This note deals with that discrepancy.
Specifically, it is recommended for these types of business owners
I most highly recommend this note to owner-managers in their late 40s to 50s who run small to medium-sized local businesses or community-based companies.
In terms of industry, these are companies where the quality of the business is determined by the frontline and the movement of people, such as retail, food and beverage, services, manufacturing, regional trading companies, wholesale, and construction.
The number of employees is around 15 to 60.
There are store managers and supervisors.
However, they have not yet been fully entrusted with everything.
The president ultimately oversees, makes decisions, and sets the tone.
That is the kind of company it is.
Why does this fit this demographic?
In this note, I organize the problems not as 'labor shortages' or 'lack of motivation,' but as a failure to share 'what is being observed,' 'what criteria are used to act,' and 'what constitutes good behavior.'
Furthermore, I view a company as a place of superposition of possibilities, where reality is shaped by observation, and where actions ripple throughout the whole through entanglement.
This is content that can be read with a sense of reality by business owners who feel the gap in people, atmosphere, and judgment on the front lines every day.
If you have these symptoms, it is a very good match
If any of the following apply to you, this note should be a very good fit.
You have a philosophy or credo, but it hasn't taken root as behavior in the workplace.
Even if you repeat the same thing, things go back to how they were.
Decision-making stops when you are not there.
Staff members never stop asking, 'What should I do?'
Good practices are not passed on to the next person.
Customer feedback is not being collected anywhere.
You are not confident that store managers or supervisors are operating by the same standards as you.
You feel a gap between what is in the president's head and how the workplace actually operates.
The good thing about this note is that it doesn't end these problems by blaming them on 'the president's poor communication' or 'the staff's low awareness.'
The problem is more structural.
You have a philosophy.
But it hasn't been translated into action.
The criteria for observation are not shared.
Even if things are visible, the flow of reaction is not designed.
That is why the company stays in the same place.
Just by organizing these points, the view changes significantly.
Conversely, for whom this note is not very suitable
On the other hand, if you still have a very small number of employees and are at a stage close to a one-person or family-run business, where the challenges of organizational structure have not yet surfaced, it might be a little too early.
Also, for business owners who are at the stage where their philosophy and policies are not yet solidified, this note is slightly off-topic.
This note is less about 'building a company from scratch' and more about 'making an existing company one level stronger.'
In the article, I also state that this is a 'question' common to all 'business owners who want to make their company one level stronger, regardless of how many points apply to them.'
What will you gain from reading this note?
The value of this note is not just simple awareness.
How to put the standards in the president's head into words.
Who sees what, where they report it, and how it leads to improvement.
How to turn good actions into company standards.
You will get the blueprint for that.
Moreover, so that it doesn't end just with reading, it includes a 4-week roadmap and an implementation worksheet to verbalize your standards.
In other words, this is a note not for finishing after reading, but for implementing in your company.
In particular,
'The president has to see everything'
from this state,
'Increasing observation points and designing the flow will make the company self-propelling'
The idea of moving to this state should be a big hint for business owners who want to go to the next stage right now.
Finally
If you,
Have a philosophy but the workplace doesn't change
Want to delegate but can't fully let go
Are looking at the numbers but the sense of discomfort doesn't go away
Want to break free from dependence on the president but can't see how
If you feel this way, this note will be useful with a very high probability.
This is not a note for running the workplace through sheer willpower.
It is also not a note for blaming people.
It is a note for organizing what to look at, what to use as a standard, and how to turn it into a system in order to make your company one level stronger.
When a company changes, it usually doesn't start with a major reform.
It begins when the standards in the president's mind are put into words for the first time.
Once that is aligned, the way the workplace is perceived changes.
When the perception changes, the company's movements also change.
This note is one that will help you with that first step in a very practical way.
