Change comes from...
A simple word: never.
Heard any of these?
We’ll never put a man on the moon.
A heavier than air machine will never fly.
A person will never run a 4-minute mile.
A personal computer will never be in everyone’s home.
For us, it was…
You’ll never forecast at store level.
You’ll never compute that many store/sku plans.
You’ll never eliminate all the redundant forecasts.
Suppliers will never plan and ship to a schedule.
Thank goodness for the word never. Never motivates. Never inspires. Never drives change. Change, simply, comes from…
Doing the never.
