5 Tips for Coping with Drug and Alcohol Cravings

0
0
The urge to use will be strong and frequent
Early on in recovery, you will have cravings for drugs or alcohol.

The urge to use will be strong and frequent at first, then after a long period of time will become less and less. In order to make it past the beginning of recovery without relapsing, you must utilize coping skills.

Ways to deal with a craving for drugs or alcohol:

1. Tell someone – Taking to a friend, family member, sponsor, or entire support group will take the power out of the craving.

2. Think about using in a different way – Often when you crave, you glamorize the using experience. Reminding yourself of the bad times rather than the good times will help you stay away from the substance. Exercising gratitude for your life as it is now, and all the possibilities of a life not controlled by substances will aid you in your abstinence.

3. Do something – Go to a 12-step meeting, pick up a hobby, cook and eat a healthy and well-balanced meal, or go to the gym. Doing anything that distracts from the urge to use will help the time pass, and the craving go away.

4. Do not use TODAY -The craving will not usually last longer than 15 minutes, and if it lasts longer simply tell yourself, “Today I will not use.” Make yourself no promises for tomorrow; then, when tomorrow comes, just tell yourself you are not going to use that day either. In this instance, you are taking cravings one day at a time, which is much easier to swallow than saying you are never going to use again.

5. Avoid situations that cause you to crave – If you are craving because you are in a bar or club, simply leave. Avoid liquor stores, or the alcohol aisle in the grocery store.  Identifying the situations that cause the urges, then removing yourself from the situations will eliminate the craving you are experiencing.

It is normal to have cravings for your substance of choice, after all you are an addict. Your will power needs to be stronger than your urges in order to make it past your beginning phases of recovery. Determining what triggers your cravings will help you to avoid those situations. Accept that you are going to have these cravings, but know that they too will pass, and if you do not give in your recovery will still be intact when they are over.

The Stigma of Drug and Alcohol Abuse

0
0
Drug addicts and alcoholics who decide to enter recovery become strong and resilient people capable of doing work on themselves.
When individuals think of drug addicts or alcoholics, they often picture drunks, and dirty, violent people salivating at street crime eventually spending their lives perpetually in and out of jails and institutions.

This is not true for everyone who has a substance abuse problem. The sweet old man next door could be an alcoholic, your child’s school teacher could be an addict, or even the grocery store clerk who you buy your food from could be an addict. Addicts are not just people who participate in scandalous acts in order to maintain their addiction, but can be anyone around you. These common misconceptions about addiction and alcoholism prevent many people from getting help for their problems because revealing themselves to others puts them at risk for rejection and loss of employment.

The way society views individuals with addictions needs to change in order for more individuals suffering from addiction to come forward and seek help for their problems without the debilitating fear of what others will think. Society looks down upon addiction, considering those who indulge in such vices to be immoral and a menace to the world. Addiction is a disease that millions of people in the world are suffering from at varying degrees of intensity. These individuals are not inherently evil. Admitting the need for help is a courageous step that should be respected not looked at with pity.

Those suffering from cancer do not get looked at with disgust because cancer is a life-threatening illness that usually comes without choice. In just the same aspect, many people did not choose their life-threatening disease of addiction. Studies show that addiction could be genetically passed down from generation to generation. Other studies show that addiction is actually within the brain. In this sense, addiction lies dormant, or manifests itself in other forms until the first substance is used. Then, the addiction is awoken, and the lifestyle that comes with addiction begins.

Drug addicts and alcoholics who decide to enter recovery become strong and resilient people capable of doing work on themselves that many people who do not struggle with addictions never realize needs to be done. These tormented souls get a second chance a life free from that pain that fueled their addiction. Addiction is not something to be feared or repulsed by, but instead looked at as the symptom of a deeper problem. Addiction takes the addict down a frightening and broken road; however recovery is the demolition and reconstruction of that road, a road that leads addicted individuals to a life of being a productive asset to society.

Dealing With Loss In Recovery

0
0
Recovery is not always happy and perfect.
Individuals use drugs to escape their emotions, negative feelings, and life circumstances; however when one becomes abstinent from drugs and enters recovery, they begin to feel again.

Many people rejoice in this. Then, when there is a death of a family member or someone who was close to them, they begin to feel pain worse than ever before. Walking through a death of a loved one sober is a chance to grow. Many addicts claim, “When my mother passes, I’ll have to use to cope.” This is not true. In maintaining abstinence even when something is going on that is as painful as a death, to walk through it organically can be very healthy, and a new experience. For the first time the individual will be able to live through such experiences and be in the moment; unlike in the past when they were usually too high to mourn properly, or even attend a funeral.

Divorces and Breakups

Loss of a marriage or relationship may also happen at some point in recovery. That loss is not worth throwing away the time sober that one has put together. Instead of hiding from, or masking emotions, face them head on and learn from the loss.

Losing a Job

Recovering addicts also may lose their job; however, this does not mean they have an excuse to use. In having faith in a higher power, the addict who loses their job will know that their higher power had a plan for them, and better employment opportunities will come about. Everything happens for a reason, even if the reason in unforeseeable at the moment.   

Losing Cars and Material Objects

Addicts may lose cars and other material objects in recovery. Though inconvenient, these are just things, and they are not even close to being as valuable as one’s recovery is.

Recovery is not always happy and perfect. Life still shows up. We lose family members and friends to death or mutual disagreements, we lose jobs for a number of reasons, and we lose prized material possessions.  Anything we put in front of our recovery we will lose. Recovery does not make one exempt of the bitterness that comes with life, but as long as we put recovery first, we will be able to deal with any loss that occurs in life. The most valuable thing a recovering addict has at stake is their own recovery.

A Natural and Environmentally Attractive, New Concept Planter and Birdfeeder

An environmentally attractive, new concept squirrel rejecting planter/birdfeeder is here!

JACKSONVILLE, Florida – September 28, 2015 – A natural and environmentally attractive planter and birdfeeder was recently announced. This simple, yet beautifully designed one-of-a-kind planter and birdfeeder has been developed to keep rodents, mostly squirrels, from getting to the birdfeed, non-invasively. The Defender was developed to attract a larger variety of birds as compared to ordinary birdfeeders. The Defender, by its design, protects the feed from all types of weather, including rain, sleet, snow, and wind gusts up to 70 mph when hung securely. The Defender is easy to fill and to clean and has no moving parts to be broken. When a plant is placed in the planter and changed based on the season, a beautiful variety of birds can be attracted. 

Created by Arthur Myrberg, this awesome product is beneficial even if the defender is not suspended. If the owner does not want to hang it as suggested, it can still be of greater benefit than other birdfeeders. For instance, if placed on a pole, stump, stand or on the ground, The Defender will still attract more bird varieties and will still protect the feed from all types of adverse weather, just not rodents. However, before everyone can enjoy this innovative product, Arthur needs help. That’s why he launched this Kickstarter campaign. The goal of this project is to raise $190,000 by November 21, 2015. The funds raised will go towards manufacturing, production, and shipping.  

To help bring this incredible birdfeeder to market, please visit the Kickstarter campaign or click here. Perks will be delivered by March 2016. 

Please keep in mind this is an “all-or-nothing” deal, which means if the campaign does not reach the funding goal then the project cannot move forward. So know that any amount given can make a difference, and this is an incredible opportunity to be a part of a special campaign! Help Arthur Myrberg reach the goal by sharing this on Facebook, Twitter, and other social networks. The more people know about this, the more support the campaign will receive.

Parenting While Under the Influence: Seeing The World Through the Eyes of a Child with an Addicted Parent

0
0
The absence of a parent who is always gone searching for and using drugs, participating in the lifestyle that comes with addiction can leave the child on their own
There are millions of addicts who are parents.

While in active addiction, your drug of choice dominates importance over other people and responsibilities, including being a parent. This can be devastating for a child. It is common for the child to be neglected, because the addiction dominates the addicted parent’s time. A child may not get sufficient time and attention from the parent that is necessary to build a relationship.

The child may end up feeling like they are not good enough for the parent to quit using. This can lead to lifelong emotional issues for the child. It can hinder their ability to develop healthy relationships in their life in which they feel secure. Their self-confidence may be affected as a result.

The absence of a parent who is always gone searching for and using drugs, participating in the lifestyle that comes with addiction can leave the child on their own. Being alone at home is not only unsafe, but it can damage the child’s mental state. A child may crave attention and feel unwanted, which can lead them to seek out attention from others. This may result in the child seeking love and affection from others that may not be safe people to be around with, such as gangs and criminal groups.

In seeing the parent use and struggle with addiction, they are setting a negative example for the child. Often, children follow the example that the parent is setting for them. Children with addicted parents are at risk for becoming addicted too. This risk escalates when a parent keeps drugs in the home, because they then have access to them.

Sometimes, a child becomes defiant because they lose respect for a parent who is always absent in their lives. When a child becomes old enough to fully understand the reason that the parent is absent, and the reason they behave so selfishly, the child may refuse to have a relationship with the parent at all.

There are also instances in some families with addicted parents that are so severe in which there is a legal intervention which removes the child from the parent’s custody. Though this can be a heartbreaking experience for both the child and the parent, it may be the wakeup call that the parent needs. Often, when the law is involved, the parent must attend a drug rehabilitation program for a certain number of days, and show proof that they are attending 12-step meetings before regaining custody of their children.

When a parent enters recovery, it is like a gift to the child. As recovery progresses, children begin to get their parents back. Though the symptoms of addiction may have destroyed the relationship between parent and child, by entering recovery they are showing their child their willingness to change. Though it may take time to regain the trust and respect that goes along with this type of relationship, through making amends to the child and vowing to live a sober life, the child will eventually begin to respect the parent again and they can rebuild their relationship.

What to Expect While Withdrawing From Alcohol

0
0
Withdrawal from alcohol can begin as soon as six hours after the last drink.
When not done in a medical setting, withdrawing from alcohol can be potentially deadly.

Withdrawal from alcohol can begin as soon as six hours after the last drink. The most severe symptoms usually peak within the first few days into the withdrawal. Withdrawal symptoms can last a few days to a few weeks depending on personal health, and severity and frequency of use.

Acute Withdrawal

Often times, for the first few days, the alcohol dependent person will experience extreme fatigue, intense nausea, vomiting, and heightened anxiety, and flu-like symptoms. This is known as the acute withdrawal phase. Tremors and raised blood pressure is also common. If the dependence to alcohol was severe enough the alcoholic may experience a condition known as delirium tremens, or DT’s. With this condition, the alcoholic may experience more intense body tremors, irritability, hallucinations, restlessness, dangerously high blood pressure, and seizures.

Post-Acute Withdrawal

As the withdrawal continues, the stage goes from acute to post-acute withdrawal. The post-acute withdrawal phase can last from ninety days to two years. During the post-acute phase, the alcoholic may experience foggy thinking and lack of concentration making it difficult to focus on and complete work-related tasks and school work. They may also experience memory loss, insomnia or feeling exhausted all the time making having a normal sleeping pattern problematic, and endure uncontrollable emotions. The alcoholic may also experience problems with responding to stress appropriately including unrealistic amounts of anxiety, cravings, and not getting pleasure out of things you once did as a symptom of depression.

What Causes These Symptoms?

Many of these psychological symptoms are a result of the brain responding to the lack of alcohol that it is used to having. When you use alcohol, you are stimulating the functioning of the gamma-aminobutyric acid, or GABA receptors, which are what controls the feelings of calm and relaxing. The problem with alcohol abuse is that it makes the GABA receptors dependent on alcohol, thus not allowing the drinker to have their GABA receptors function properly on their own. When this happens, anxiety, panic attacks, and insomnia are experienced. When the brain is resetting its chemical functions, the brain begins to feel fuzzy creating difficulty with functioning normally in daily life.

How to Avoid Withdrawal

In order to not fall victim to withdrawal symptoms, do not binge drink. Binge drinking can be thought of as five or more alcoholic drinks in the course of two hours if you are a man, and four or more alcoholic drinks in two hours if you are a female. Furthermore, avoid drinking two or more days in a row. If you have experienced alcohol withdrawal in the past, you are more likely to experience it more easily if you begin to drink heavily. It is best to simply abstain from alcohol if you have previously experienced alcohol withdrawal.

The Importance of Oral Healthcare

0
0
A good oral health is not only vital for the appearance but also for the ability to chew, sleep, and digest food in a healthy manner.
Oral health does not only have its influence on the appearance of a person, but also on the patient’s health.

Gum diseases and cavities can contribute to some serious health conditions, including respiratory diseases and diabetes. Cavities that are left untreated are not only painful, but infectious. Recent studies show that one of the causes of heart disease can be poor oral health.

A good oral health is not only vital for the appearance but also for the ability to chew, sleep, and digest food in a healthy manner.

Oral health and the digestive system:

Whatever goes into the stomach first passes through the mouth; and whatever is in the mouth will pass on to the stomach. Poor oral health, such as gum diseases, infections or cavities, can cause bacterial elements to mix with the food that is being chewed and bring unwanted bacteria into the body.

Poor oral health restricts proper chewing and breaking down the food particles properly, which eventually brings more stress to the digestive system.

Gum diseases that are left untreated may cause people to lose their teeth, but may also increase the risk of infectious diseases in the body. Unhealthy plaque can travel from the mouth to the lungs, increasing the risk of having lung diseases.

What risks oral health?

Good oral health can only be maintained with healthy and nutritious food. Eating habits have a direct relationship with one’s dental and oral health. Other than unhealthy food, smoking is becoming a widely known risk factor for dental and oral diseases. From the health of gum tissues to the damages to teeth bones, tobacco can ruin the entire oral system.

How to maintain good oral health:

As scary as it may sound, maintaining good oral health is, in reality, quite simple.

• Floss and brush your teeth on daily basis. Using an anti-bacterial paste is even better

• Visiting the dentist regularly helps to regulate and protect your dental system

• Eating nutritious food is important, as it helps build the gum tissues and keep the cavities away from teeth

• In pregnancy, good food effects one’s dental health twice as much

• Perform a salt water cleansing of the mouth at least once a week


Oral health goes on for life.  However, once compromised, it is very difficult to restore.  There is nothing natural you can do to bring back your teeth and dental implants are an expensive alternative to proper care and treatment.

Why Have a Consistent Family Dentist

0
0
Family dentists are the most beneficial when it comes to children and their dental health.
It is imperative to maintain one’s oral and dental health.

It is something people must never neglect, in order to maintain a healthy life. Oral health is not only significant for good appearance, but also for the health of the digestive system, the respiratory system and the condition of one’s blood. Over time, dental health issues have increased, due to unhealthy eating habits and an increased use of cigarettes and soft drinks. Therefore, it is important to understand the significance of having a good family dentist to help educate each patient, offer preventative care and treat any existing dental maladies.

It is always recommended to choose the right family dentist; one with whom the entire family can feel comfortable. As a family dentist, the doctor should provide all the details about how to maintain good oral health and mitigate any possible causes for existing oral conditions. A family dentists advises and recommends the food, nutrients or diet that is right for the oral health of the entire family.

Why have a family doctor?

Just like any other medical treatment, dental treatments also include making a written documentation of the medical history of each patient. The family dentist becomes familiar with the history of illnesses and their symptoms, any ongoing medical issues and treatments of the entire family. All the details of dental complications are readily available, and therefore, the future treatments are given in respect to the previous ones. Furthermore, the medications provided earlier must be consistent with the ones prescribed now, and in the future. A sudden change in any medication is always stressful for the body. In certain cases, changing one’s dentist and a related medicine too often causes the situation to worsen, instead of getting better.

Another major benefit of having a family dentist is the help and support available in case of any kind of emergency dental treatment. People often find themselves suffering from sudden dental ailments. At such times, only a family doctor will be willing to provide an immediate consultation.

Family dentists are the most beneficial when it comes to children and their dental health. Dental treatment has served as a monstrous nightmare to children for centuries. A family doctor is able to comfort the child, after becoming familiar with their personality and nature. The child, as well, feels much more comfortable with a recognizable face putting needles in their mouth, rather than with a complete stranger treating them. Hence, there are a multitude of benefits for having a consistent family dentist; one who is familiar with the oral care of the entire family.

The Effects of Cocaine on the Body

0
0
Cocaine acts on the central nervous system.
Cocaine, or “coke,” is a stimulating narcotic that is derived from the coca plant.

This drug produces a short lived high in which the user is full of energy, has the urge to talk, and experiences euphoria. Cocaine is highly addictive, with users finding the drug irresistible after just a few uses. The following study was conducted by Elite Rehab Placement over the course of two years and researchers found that there were multiple detrimental effects not only on within body of the subjects but also the entire nervous systems themselves. Here are the results:

The Effects of Cocaine on the Brain

Cocaine acts on the central nervous system, increasing the levels of the dopamine in the brain. Dopamine controls the feelings of pleasure in the body; However, when it is constantly stimulated, it becomes damaged creating feelings of depression when the drug is not being used. When the user gains a tolerance, they need to use more cocaine in order to achieve as much of the pleasurable feeling they originally did, which leads the user to overdose. Using cocaine also impairs judgment because it lowers inhibitions, causing people to say and do things that they would not normally.

The Effects of Cocaine on the Body

This drug causes high body temperature, high blood pressure, constricted blood pressure, headaches, and dilated pupils. Those who use this drug are also at risk of gastrointestinal problems such as pain in the abdomen and nausea. Cocaine will also suppress the appetite, making cocaine addicts malnourished. If the user does the drug by snorting the substance, they are at risk for a deviated septum, frequent nose bleeds, a constantly running nose, difficulty swallowing, and the inability to smell.

Chronic users may experience restlessness, high anxiety, irritability, irrational paranoia including auditory hallucinations, weight loss, tooth decay, reproductive harm including infertility, heart attack, and stroke. Long term use of cocaine can result in a various psychological problems such as anxiety disorders and depression, and a loss of interest in life in general.

Cocaine Withdrawal

Once a user stops using cocaine, they will experience:

• High anxiety

• Paranoid thinking

• Difficulty with feeling happy

• Irritability

• Hopelessness

• Intense cravings

• Headaches

• Fatigue


If the user has been mixing cocaine with other substances, such as alcohol or heroin, they will experience these withdrawal symptoms as well, and the symptoms will likely be enhanced.

Antidepressant medications may be prescribed to help with the depression and anxiety that comes with cocaine withdrawal. Propranolol is often used for withdrawal symptoms because of its ability to suppress adrenaline, thus helping the user with their anxiety levels. Use of this betablocker is especially helpful if the user is also detoxing from alcohol, but it should not be used without medical supervision.

This extremely addictive drug is dangerous, and using it can be life threatening. If you or someone you love is experiencing cocaine addiction, medical attention should be pursued. It is necessary to seek help from a drug rehabilitation center in order to abstain from using this drug. Recovery from cocaine abuse is a process that will not happen overnight, but rather a lifelong journey.

Treatment for athletes is typically a speedy process.
Wellness centers provide a professional approach to cure injuries of various kinds.

The trend of recovering from injuries by using wellness centers is becoming very popular especially among athletes. Wellness centers have a team of trained professionals and research analysts who provide services of various kinds.

Acupuncture is an amazing therapy in which pressure is applied on certain location of joints. According to research, acupuncture not only increases blood flow in a person’s body, it also releases hormones which affects moods and relaxes athlete’s muscles from an all-day training session. In chiropractic treatment, chiropractic physicians diagnose movement and dislocation problems caused by the injury. In curing movement disabilities, active rehabilitation largely aids in lessening muscle imbalance impact. It also helps an athlete to recover from trauma and stress.

For this purpose, the healing process also involves meditation and various chores which involve spiritual healing and mental health. Various therapies used for curing athletic injuries include postural awareness, movement and exercise rehabilitation, daily routine counseling, self-care workouts and mobilization of soft tissues with the help of instruments.

How a Combination of Alternative and Modern Medicine Help Patients Recover Faster From Physical Injuries

0

Mind-body techniques are also considered to be a type of alternative medicine.
Technically, alternative medicines are those which are unorthodox in nature; i.e., members of the medical science community don’t authenticate their effectiveness.

Homeopathy, naturopathy, herbal treatments such as Ayurveda and Chinese medicines come under the category of alternative medicines. Although there are differences in opinion among the doctors and medical practitioners about their working and effectiveness, people around the world – especially South Asian nations – have been using such medicines since ancient days.

As research around alternative medicines has boomed in the past few decades, a vast majority of researchers claim that alternative medicine can prove to be very effective when it is used in tandem with modern medicines. Modern medicines are those which doctors around the world prescribe to the patients; those treatments which are manufactured as pills, ointments or tablets by pharmaceutical companies from bio-chemical components. Patients suffering from physical injuries, such as pain in muscles and joints, bruises, cuts, inflammation, etc. can recover much faster if they are provided with a combination of both alternative and modern medicines.

It is a well known fact that modern medicines have side effects, as well. Modern medicines, such as pain killers which are prescribed to the patients to get relief from pain, are often harsh in nature and could have certain side effects on internal organs such as liver and kidneys. So, in such a situation, alternative medicine could be used alongside modern medicines. Not only will it help patients recover faster; it would also reduce the dosage requirements of the modern medicine, thereby reducing side effects.

For instance, chile pepper could be refined to create an alternative medicine which works as a pain reducing agent. In addition, a paste of honey, turmeric and holy basil also works well to provide relief from pain and inflammation. All of these alternative medicines could be used alongside prescribed drugs to help a patient recover faster than usual from physical injuries.

For treating wounds and cuts resulting from physical injuries, one can use honey or an alternative medicine and modern medicine such as Povidone-Iodine at different times of the day to speed up the healing process. For treating injuries such as burns, alternative medicines such as Aloe Vera, along with prescribed drugs, can speed up the healing process considerably.

Mind-body techniques are also considered to be a type of alternative medicine. Meditation and mental healing are some of the techniques which could be done alongside taking modern medicine to strengthen the mind and body.  According to many researchers, this could result in a faster recovery from bodily injuries.

Understanding Business Management Problems

0

There is also a downside to promoting high performers into management roles.
Oftentimes, in companies that grow quickly, the managers are promoted from the ranks of high-performing individuals in the business unit.

The company may see it as a value-add to have employees who already understand the culture, and value the company’s mission in a personal way.  Promoting from within can keep a high-functioning team together and contribute to a continuous flow of institutional learning and information.  Promoting from within can also act as a morale builder.  When a company needs to hold onto an exceptional employee, promotion can offer a mutually symbiotic approach to accomplish this goal.

There is also a downside to promoting high performers into management roles.  There are great solo performers who just don’t transition well into a leadership role.  There are many reasons that an exceptional employee doesn’t easily come up to the ranks of management. When a senior manager or business owner finds that someone in management is not performing to their potential, it can be useful to bring in a business consultant to take a look at the situation with fresh eyes. The business consultant will not be there to focus on just one employee. The scope of the consulting job could be as broad as, looking for skill and performance gaps in the entire executive management staff. Regardless of how the engagement is designed/defined, the objective viewpoint of a trained and experienced business consultant will be incredibly useful for eliminating the organizational stress associated with poor performance and/or poor management.

When an internal promotion is being considered or a key new-hire is being interviewed, bringing in a talented and exceptional business consultant – bringing a proven record of success within the operational environment will add value and insight to your team’s perspective. The business consultant will advise the group and help ensure that a high-performing internal candidate is well suited to the executive role in question.  When it comes to interviewing external candidates, the business consultant can take on tasks that will help ensure your sourced talent proves an operational and environmental fit.

Once the executive is in place, a business consultant can help the company with advice on the best ways to provide ongoing and regular coaching. Developing the organization’s talent through coaching is one of the ways in which a high quality business consultant can add value. Helping the human resources or training department to develop ongoing business training programs is another way the business consultant can contribute to the company’s long-term health and wellbeing.

How A Business Consultant Can Help Teams Work Together

Often a strong facilitator is required in order to bring personalities and teams into alignment for significant cross-functional projects.
During the course of day-to-day business, it’s become more critical for business teams to coordinate, communicate and produce across lines of business.

The hard lines of direct reporting are diminishing; and the new matrix environment of business is forcing some people to learn new skills. When an organization is thinking about making a change that impacts cross-functional teams, one of the trickiest things to accomplish is consensus building and ensuring the team remains client-centric. Team loyalties, personal agendas and politics in the ranks have to be put aside for the greater goal of the cross-functional project or initiative. The interested parties in the change affected by the new process, program, software, or other arrangement, have to have a strong sense that it is the right path and one that will create value.  Ideally, as an output of the cross-functional workspace, the team will transition from change managers to change agents, with the differential defined as adopting to change and championing the value of the change.

Often a strong facilitator is required in order to bring personalities and teams into alignment for significant cross-functional projects. As employees are challenged, threatened or fearful of failure, they may become resentful, rebellious or complacent. The leadership of the team needs to be able to define an operating environment focused on productivity and value generation, in order to ensure everyone feels comfortable expressing their concerns and viewpoints. After all, if the team contributes significantly to the firm’s success, the team is considered a strategic and valuable asset.  Thus, we have defined one of the risks behind this concept.  The weak point rests in the proficiency of the facilitator, which can mean the difference between success and failure for the initiative.  

Furthermore, today’s environment of social media, internal leaks, and speed of information transfer depicts a marketplace in which the owner/executive must ensure the proper safeguards to protect the brand. One such way to minimize the risk is to bring in a talented and experienced business consultant to act as a facilitator when trying to create an environment receptive to change. Talented business consultants armed with a deep tool belt of change management, and management by fact tools coupled with teambuilding skills will ensure the team is prepared to adopt and change in a successful manner.

In a new business, or when starting a new business unit, it’s in the best interests of the long-term agility and flexibility of the team to create the structure with change built in, as an environment norm.  The markets are too fluid, business moves too fast, and technology comes and goes too quickly.  In this environment, looking at a constantly changing platform and culture is not risk adverse – it’s become the standard. An organization must take the time to create a culture that is accepting of change as the first step toward remaining competitive.  The preparation work that is put into this cultural and environmental shift will help the company redefine the future state of change management, when the next (and inevitable) change comes.

When the business needs a new, flexible and dynamic way of thinking, there are business consultants who can be brought in to facilitate this process.  Not only is it a small investment in the company’s future, but it is also a way of transformation that can help bring more innovation to the company.

How a Business Consultant Can Provide Performance Analysis

Knowing the marketplace and the trends in the business environment will help the business consultant to enhance the framework within the organization.
Sometimes, a company will find a gap in performance.

This gap could reflect a lack of performance from the field, when compared to what the management wants to see. By collecting detailed information from the organization’s stakeholders, an experienced business consultant can detect the reasons for the gap and recommend steps the company can take to remedy the situation. A reliable business consultant, with a strong record of performance in the applicable industry, will have the insight and background to determine the best approach to gain factual and important information from the team. The business consultant will facilitate all interviews, surveys and focus groups that will draw out the details needed by management. The knowledge and expertise the consultant brings with him/her will help inform his analysis of the data and generate recommendations for going-forward plans. Working with management, the business consultant can review the data and develop customized strategic plans for the company.

Knowing the marketplace and the trends in the business environment will help the business consultant to enhance the framework within the organization. When there is a new market opportunity, bringing on a business consultant will minimize risk and ensure diversity of thought. A business consultant can help to evaluate the organization’s existing capabilities and create tangible action plans to close any strategic gaps. This analysis can help quantify the return on investment (ROI) of the opportunity the company undertakes in a value-oriented customer centric manner. A well-versed professional business consultant can use management by fact approaches to solve staffing level issues, training needs, and individual coaching needs. A truly experienced and qualified business consultant will not only be able to identify employees who could benefit from individual coaching; but will also be able to serve as a sounding board and development coach for those employees.

When a company that’s been established for many years wants to gain an up-to-date understanding of their market position, a business consultant can help bring global standards of performance measurement to the executive management and if necessary present to the board. Working closely with senior management or owners of the company, the business consultant will bring his/her many years of experience to generate an analysis of the company’s performance. This will help the leadership of the firm craft a strategy that will help improve performance. The professional business consultant can also offer insights into the marketplace, which can further help the strategic leadership to create or update a long-term vision.
