BENEFITS OF DOCUMENT
DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION
Peter Drucker taught that a business exists to solve a problem for a customer ... which raises three all-important questions:
1. WHAT does the company provide?
2. To WHOm does it provide it?
3. WHY do customers buy from the company what it provides?
Businesses that perform well and grow fast give careful thought to what problem to solve for who and why they will buy from them because it turns out to be the cornerstone to any successful venture.
Leaders who all describe the problem their organization solves for whom in the same way, provide consistent guidance and direction and so increase the odds of better performance and faster growth. Diverse leadership teams are more likely to deploy their great strengths in a common quest when they are clear about their W-W-W.
No routine business process naturally forces a team to work on their W-W-W. Consequently, members evolve to have different understandings and assumptions. Even the smallest deviation in perspective across leadership team members can wreak havoc in the organization. Leaders can either ignore that there are differences, assume everyone is aligned, or mandate an answer. One more option is the The better alternative and that is to collaborate.
The WHAT-WHO-WHY template is a simple, yet powerful way to make explicit what each team member is thinking and in a form the group can work with to align by achieving clarity through collaboration.

"One of the great discoveries that I have made for my business is the Flevy library of training materials.
As a Lean Transformation Expert, I am always making presentations to clients on a variety of topics: Training, Transformation, Total Productive Maintenance, Culture, Coaching, Tools, Leadership Behavior, etc. Flevy usually has just what I need to make my point. It is well worth the money to purchase these presentations. Sure, I have the knowledge and information to make my point. It is another thing to create a presentation that captures what I want to say. Flevy has saved me countless hours of preparation time that is much better spent with implementation that will actually save money for my clients." – Ed Kemmerling, Senior Lean Transformation Expert at PMG

"I have used Flevy services for a number of years and have never, ever been disappointed. As a matter of fact, David and his team continue, time after time, to impress me with their willingness to assist and in the real sense of the word. I have concluded in fact that it is not at all just a repository of documents/resources but, in the way that David and his team manage the firm, it is like dealing with consultants always ready to assist, advise and direct you to what you really need, and they always get it right.
I am an international hospitality accomplished senior executive who has worked and lived during the past 35 years in 23 countries in 5 continents and I can humbly say that I know what customer service is, trust me. Aside from the great and professional service that Flevy's team provide, their wide variety of material is of utmost great quality, professionally put together and most current. Well done Flevy, keep up the great work and I look forward to continue working with you in the future and to recommend you to a variety of colleagues around the world." – Roberto Pelliccia, Senior Executive in International Hospitality

"As a small business owner, the resource material available from FlevyPro has proven to be invaluable. The ability to search for material on demand based our project events and client requirements was great for me and proved very beneficial to my clients. Importantly, being able to easily edit and tailor the material for specific purposes helped us to make presentations, knowledge sharing, and toolkit development, which formed part of the overall program collateral. While FlevyPro contains resource material that any consultancy, project or delivery firm must have, it is an essential part of a small firm or independent consultant's toolbox."
