I gained experience in every aspect of the business, especially growing team members and their skill sets.

“You should stay consistent with where you're going, whereas how you get there and how fast you should adapt based on new technologies and new information may keep changing. In our first year, we became a global organization because of the time we invested in creating leverage points and scalability tools, and best practices,” Monteexpressed.

Exhibiting True Excellence

“This has been one of the most productive experiences we have gone through. The process helped us see the big picture, was efficient, and they made it personal for our situation.” – National Bank Financing Company

“The Strategic Thinking Execution Planning process helped us go deep to the root causes of our problems, which pushed us to more clearly see our opportunities.” – Agricultural Chemical Manufacturer

“During our planning sessions, we are challenged to relook at how we perceive situations and opportunities. We are pushed to find positive outcomes through frustrating issues. They make complex topics simple.” – Chief Physician of Regional Medical Clinic

“The ongoing executive development process helped our team determine our leadership and management routines. We realized we have to be more intentional with how we lead our people and manage our processes.” – Regional Bank and Fintech Company

“Bringing in someone from the outside is always a good thing. We see ourselves one way, and the outside world sees us differently. The execution process helped us drive change in our behaviors, focus, actions, and ultimately our growth. We had to get out of our own way.” – Global Food Company

And, even after its effective implementation,thereremainsthepossibilitytoimproveand optimizeoperations.Usually,duetotheabsenceofexpertise and/orresources,thereisathreatthattheoptimizationareas notgettingtrackedishigh.

Such obliviousness can cause random problems every day, leading to a reduction in overall productivity While big enterprises avail every resource to tackle such issues and optimizetheiroperationsallthetime,smallbusinessesmostly remain indifferent to them due to the unavailability of resourcesorinsights.

To assist such small businesses to find their wings, Clubnet SolutionsInc.cameintoexistence.

Being one of its kind, it has deep expertise in tracking and mitigatingsmalltobigissues.BasedinCanada,thecompany helpssmallorganizationsflyhigherbyeasingtheunnecessary weightagewithaconstructiveapproach.

WespokewithIlianaRocha,PresidentandLeadCoachof Clubnet, to learn more about the company's approach to boosting clients' business productivity and professional leadershipskillstoincreaseprofits.

Belowaretheexcerptsfromtheinterview:

Please brief ouraudience about yourcompany, its USPs, and how it is currently positioned as a reliablefirm in its nichemarket.

At Clubnet, we work mostly with impact entrepreneurs to build thriving businesses without all the overwhelm. We do thisbyrefiningtheirWoW!(Way of Working)andaligningit with their personal and professional Ikigai so they can continue to scale their impact. We work with impact entrepreneurs because their focus on the triple bottom line extends past simple profit making, which enables us to amplifyourownimpact.Theirfocusonbuildinghumaneand socially responsible workplaces also enables us to employ

management recommendations based on leading practices thatarenotverywelladoptedyetinthemarket.

Clubnet firmly believes that small businesses can significantly contribute to society and their communities. Smallbusinesseshaveconsistentlydemonstratedthattheyare more responsible than giant corporations. They treat their employees better and are more likely to keep them even in toughtimes;theycreatejobsandsupportlocaleconomies.

What differentiates us is that we are more like partners than vendorstoourclients.Wewanttocollaboratewithleadersto build their businesses and create a network of professionals thatamplifyeachother'simpact.Ourclientsoftenhearfrom uslongafterwehavewrappedupapaidengagement.When we learn of new practices and opportunities that current and past clients can benefit from, we get in touch and offer up valuableinformationwheneverwecan.

Shedsomelightonyourofferingsandhowtheyimpactthe industryandyourclients?

We have a variety of offerings for our clients. For those looking for a structured engagement, we offer an initial evaluation and report, plus a package of monthly hours to support the implementation of recommendations. For those that want to experience the power of what we can do, we engage on an hourly basis. This gives us an opportunity to follow the thread and deep dive into business strategy and operations. That's when we can really make profound recommendations.

Wehaveextensiveexpertiseinscalingbusinesses;however, sincethestartofthepandemic,weworkalotaroundlowering costsforourcustomers(byasmuchasathird!).Weexplore strategic, operational, and financial planning and management aimed to optimize the business while reducing wastedeffortsandcosts.

ways to do things better, it also improves the overall health, satisfaction,andengagementoftheteam.

We understand what it takes to manage a business successfully and efficiently, and we work with leaders to designprecision-tailoredactionplansthathelpthemscaleand improvetheircompanies.

Pleasetellusaboutyourjourneyintheindustryandhow youhavecontributedtothecompany'ssuccess. When I was in the corporate business, I always loved the leadershipaspect,theideaofdevelopingpeopleandbringing outthebestinthem—just,generally,helpingthemfindtheir pathinlife.

However, working in big companies, it was difficult to actually make a difference in employees' lives because you areconstantlyconstrainedbythebusinesspracticesthatthese organizations have. So, the last two to five years of my corporate life were very demotivating, and I literally saw a team of 300+ people get burnt out. Due to an unfortunate combination of personal and professional challenges, I was very much burnt out too. On the recommendation of my doctor,Itookamentalhealthleave.Uponcomingback,Iwas justabsolutelyappalled.

A company and a team that supposedly were committed to mental health failed to help me integrated back into the organization. In fact, I felt like an outsider, no longer to be trusted by the team. Plus, having some time off gave me a differentperspectiveonwhattheworkplacewasactuallylike, and I saw clearly how much of a mismatch existed between thecorporatecultureandmypersonalandprofessionalIkigai.

Ihadintendedtostartmyownbusinessforawhile,andthen, duetoCOVID-19,mypartnerandIwerebothlaidoff.Atfirst, I could not believe it but once the shock wore off, I realized thiswasanopportunityforus.Wecouldfocusoureffortson buildingClubnetandworkingwithpeople,makingsurethat other teams do not experience what we experience in the workplace.

Being an experienced leader, share your opinion on how the adoption of modern technologies has impacted the industryandhowisyourcompanyridingthetechnology wave?

Thereisaproliferationof toolsthatarenowavailabletosmall and mid-sized businesses at an affordable price point.That's great,butwhenleftunchecked,bringinginmultipletoolsinto a business can cause inefficiencies. So, we focus a lot on limiting the tool kit by using each tool to its maximum

potential. With fewer handoffs and data residing in multiple systems,wecanbetterstreamlineprocesses.

We employ the same way of thinking within our own company Wethinklongandhardbeforeintroducinganynew technologies. We certainly explore tools that are new to the market so we can evaluate them. Both my partner and I are tech geeks, so we love to experiment. But we do not permanentlyalterourtoolsetunlesssomethingrevolutionary comestomarket.Wewillnotswaptoolsjustbecauseashiny newfeaturecameout.Thevaluepropositionneedstobemuch strongerforustodisruptourWoW!

Companies like BetterUp and GrowthSpace are bringing coaching and personal and professional development to the masses.

How do you envision scaling your organization's operationsandofferingsin2022andbeyond? Many businesses stall before exponential growth because theirleadersdonotknowhowtoplanforthefutureorbecause they are unable to give up control.Whether looking to scale your business to sell, obtain funding or keep control, it is important to build a brand that goes beyond your personal brand.

Amongalltheworkforcegenerations, GenZisoneofthehardesttoattract forcompanies.ThisisbecauseGenZs expecttheirworkplacestocoincide withtheirvalues,beinclusiveofall cultures,facilitatemassivelearnings, takeintoconsiderationtheirmental healthandwellbeing,andbeethicalin allforms.Alltheseexpectationsareof immenseimportancetoaGenZ candidate,andthelackofanyoneof
