“I was really amazed that this would work in any area... This is the most interactive,
beneficial seminar... Otherwise, I would walk out of here and say that was nice
but I wouldn’t have the same concept on how to do it.”
—Natalie Lebow, 30-year
educator. From the video: “The Pull Thinking Experience”

Who
Needs Pull Thinking?
Because it helps develop processes by focusing
on fundamental issues—like how people think, how
they communicate and how they take action—Pull Thinking® can
be applied to any number of situations to improve the overall
performance and effectiveness of a workforce.
In fact, even if you’re already using another kind of
performance enhancement program (such as Team Development,
Six Sigma, Lean, ISO Certification or Balanced Scorecard),
Pull Thinking can be applied to it to help increase that program’s
effectiveness and speed to ROI.
Below are some of the challenges that the application of
Pull Thinking can help you with:
| Challenge |
How
Using Pull Thinking Can Help |
| Strategic & tactical
planning and development |
With Pull Thinking you can build
a plan, tie your tactical plans to your strategic
plan, roll it all out and measure the results. Use
Pull Thinking if:
- You need common planning and implementation
processes integrated throughout all levels of
your organization
- You need to achieve the next level
of growth or productivity
- Your executive/management team
doesn’t have a common planning process
|
| Mergers, acquisitions & realignment
after downsizing |
Mergers/acquisitions: Use
Pull Thinking to integrate companies and people more
quickly and completely into one common culture with
focused purpose. And achieve the incremental gains
you estimated were possible at purchase. Realignment: If
your workforce has been reduced, it’s more important
than ever to focus on morale. Pull Thinking can help
keep your people motivated, working together and aligned
with common goals and strategies. |
| Customer satisfaction,
loyalty & retention |
For organizations experiencing customer
service and retention issues, Pull Thinking’s customer-focused
model offers a concrete way to create the ultimate
service flow for satisfied customers. |
| High-growth and
expansion |
If your business is expanding or is
in a high-growth industry and you’re adding new people,
markets or business lines, apply Pull Thinking to help
create an aligned, effective and motivated workforce
that can support your growth and customer needs. |
| Compliance and
regulatory issues (Sarbanes/Oxley, etc.) |
Compliance and regulatory issues (Sarbanes/Oxley,
etc.) Pull Thinking’s Four Dimensional Alignment ensures
integrity at all levels for every individual. This
is an extremely significant benefit to both the internal
and external stakeholders of an organization. |
| Human Resources |
Employee-related issues can be very
costly, whether the issue is morale, high turnover,
recruitment, retention, contract negotiations or succession
planning. Use Pull Thinking to help pinpoint job descriptions
for greater accuracy in hiring and to help promote
effective communication, positive morale and motivation. |
| Friction within
and across departments |
Human friction can be costing you more
than you think—inhibiting the achievement of your goals,
sabotaging revenue capture and causing you to lose
customers. Pull Thinking can uncover and diffuse hidden
conflict, replacing it with common goals, full buy-in
and a commitment to teamwork. |
| Launching new product,
service or business line |
Pull Thinking can help get your whole
organization aligned and focused quickly if you’re
launching a new business line, product or service or
opening new markets to compete more effectively. |
| Services/consulting |
Pull Thinking provides an efficient
way to work with clients in a close, collaborative
fashion. Consulting firms can help clients deal with
long-term change and become life-long, value-added
partners. Consultants can also add Pull Thinking to
their consulting toolsets by becoming certified teachers
and licensees of the Pull Thinking Methodology. |
