If you want to be a professional club that climbs divisions and wins flags - then that's your outcome, the processes that are then designed need to match that. If you want to develop juniors and provide a social link to the community - then that is your outcome, and the processes need to match that.
If you want to be financially sustainable and survive the short term - that is your outcome. Define the process to match that.
So often we have these processes (the rules and practices which impact our organisational culture) which don't match the desired outcome.
So yes, HT, we might be different clubs and have different desired outcomes, but the way humans collaborate and work together and the levers we can pull to change it are constant, definable and measurable.
Agree,
In was in a conference the other week with ex Aussie cricket coach John Buchanan as the guest speaker
His theory on clubs/teams/business was:
The first thing a president / committee /organisation should be able to state is what that club exsists to be/do/are
Without this a club has no direction / ambition slash measurable of success
From there a club can fill in the gaps / path / journey on how they ultimately achieve what they exsist to do
Overtime the outcome, goal, aim may change back and forth etc but they should always have this
