A Healthy Diet for a Healthy Organisation-Ravi Gilani Often we find that the poor performance of the company is attributed to the poor efficiency of its employees, however, most of the times it’s the policy that falls short on building a robust framework in assisting the employees. Mr. Ravi Gilani, Founder & Managing Consultant of Goldratt India, is a certified expert of Theory of Constraints International Certification Organization. He is also one of the most sought-after business consultants in India and has provided his expertise to Indian and transnational organizations such as L&T, Godrej & Boyce, Alstom, Dalmia Cement, OCL, Eicher, Ring plus Aqua and much more to overcome the impediments in their growth. He also served as a board member of TOCICO from 2005-2008 and 2013-2016.
With his rich experience in the industry and Theory of Constraints, he states the evaluation performance, which is in parts instead of the whole performance evaluating system as one of reasons for poor performance in productivity, diving deep into his theory he says, “Many times when I am asked to help improve worker productivity, I refuse point blank. How about improving the productivity of leadership? But how shall we measure the productivity of CEO / MD / owner & their direct reports?�, the main flaw lied in the Key Result Areas performance measurement system which is totally flawed. The notion that the company performance is the sum total of the part performance is the myth, the reality lies in controlling the performance of the weakest link- the constraint. In the majority of the cases, it is found that this constraint is one among the top management of the company.
