Products & Services
To give small to mid-size companies a business excellence program that lasts, we conducted years of research and found that all highly successful businesses practice six fundamental business disciplines: strategizing, planning, organizing, executing, measuring and learning.
The Six Disciplines Program was developed to provide a systematic, lasting approach that ingrains these six practices into the activities of every employee, every day.
But we didn’t just develop the first enduring business excellence program, we wrote the book on it. Literally. Our CEO Gary Harpst authored Six Disciplines for Excellence: Building Small Businesses That Learn, Lead and Last, which has been purchased by thousands of business leaders just like you.
If your company is on a successful path, has strong leadership and wants to learn how to continuously plan and execute better, Six Disciplines can help you get there – and stay there.
