10.00 – 12.00 Session 2 RETHINKING COST STRUCTURES Organisations are missing major opportunities to boost profits or save money because of inadequate approaches to cost reduction, according to a global study conducted by the Economist Intelligence Unit. The overarching lesson from this study is not the possible benefits arising from a set of techniques, but the importance of unified thinking about business models and cost. In this session you will learn how to focus on making a leaner, more flexible and more effective organisation, with cost reduction as the consequence, not just the target.
KEY FEATURES • missed cost-reduction opportunities • flaws in present cost-reduction strategies • looking at cost from a different perspective • identifying and classifying costs • cost drivers and causes • a unified, flexible approach to cost reduction • sustainable cost reduction.
