Business Diagnostic

Today, we’re living in an era of rapid change and ever-increasing expectations and pressure. Customers expect businesses operating in or alongside the Tourism & Hospitality industry to be more personalised, relevant, digitally savvy and easy to do business with, while businesses are being directly impacted by the rate of technological change and the real threat of digital disruption.

At the same time, owners and shareholders of these businesses are exerting substantial pressure on them to optimise, to improve their performance, to identify growth opportunities and to work out how to best to future proof themselves. There’s never been a more important time to ensure your business is on the right path to a sustainable future.

The B Hive’s Business Diagnostic is a business health check designed to:

• assess the relevance of the vision and strategy of the business in the current context;
• capture and analyse insights that can identify the root cause of issues and the most critical areas for improvement: and
• improve a businesses’ operational performance and/or hone in on a problem or high potential areas of the business.

The B Hive adopts a strategic approach to explore:

1. the things we know that we know;
2. the things we know that we do not know; and
3. the things we do not know or cannot know.
