THE SYSTEM
Imagine an army going to war without a winning strategic plan.

Imagine the enthusiasm and spirit lacking that any team must possess to win. That war would be lost.
Today, many businesses and even individuals find they are not winning the “war.” They are not attracting the new customers they need. Their operation runs over budget. Their team lacks strong motivation. Production is too slow. Sales too little. Or, they are doing many things right, but the winning is still coming more slowly than it should.
