Australia's #1 Business Systems Expert

Systemise your Business with a Brain in a Box Consultant. Working with You and Your Team, Your Consultant will Capture Your Systems and have them Available on Your Google Site, Ready to Share with Your Team.

When you systemise your business with a Brain in a Box Consultant we’ll make sure that everyone in your business can access your systems. We’ll create an intranet site for you and everything we do will be published to this site. You can continue to add to it long after we’ve completed our work together. Your ‘props’ – the forms, checklists, guides, scripts, videos, etc. that support your systems – can be published here as well. So practically everything you need to run your business can be accessed from the one location on the web.

So, we’ll prioritise and map your core processes based on our 5-step systems methodology. We’ll use our custom post-its (based on standard ISO figures) to capture your processes, or we’ll work directly in Lucidchart® using Zoom. As we upload photos of your draft processes, the Brain in a Box Confidence team kicks into action, drawing your workflow in Lucidchart® and publishing it directly to your intranet site. We’ll also capture as many of your props (checklists, guides, scripts, video, templates, etc) as we can through the week and the Confidence team will help to create & publish these as well so that you can access them directly from your Google Site, SharePoint Site or Teamwork Spaces.

Our total focus will be to publish your core business systems by the end of the week. We will support you as you continue to grow your systems for a further (one) month after our systems intensive week*. Our dedicated Confidence team will continue to work with you during this month to help you to create and publish your props and new workflows. Naturally, you’ll have access to your systems from day one.

* Of course you can sign up to Confidence to continue to receive support after the two months included in your package. Take a look at the options.

How We Work

1 Systems Overview Workshop

We’ll start off by listing the roles, the software and the organisational areas that define your business. From there, we’ll create the ‘big picture’ view of your business using a mind map with just enough detail to let us build your ‘systems map.’

2 Set Up Systems Planner

To the extent that we can, we’ll plan out our Systems Intensive week to make optimum use of team resources. We’ll finish off by transferring the core processes from the mind map onto the Systems Planner, ready to track our progress. Ready for the Systems Intensive.

3 … And Then We Map Your Systems

Using the systems planner to guide us, we’ll capture and refine the core business processes, working with members of your team. While we’re working on them, our team will set up your Google Site, SharePoint Sites or Teamwork Spaces and publish your workflows just as fast as we can get them up.

4 Upload To Confidence

As we capture each process from the workshop sessions, we will upload them to the confidence team. Shortly after that you’ll see them published to your Google Site, SharePoint Site or Teamwork Spaces.

5 Get The Props Moving

Props (checklists, forms, templates, videos, etc.) are crucial to your business systems, and the Confidence team will start working on them straight away. We can update existing props, too of course.

6 We’ll Try Our Hardest…

We will work with you to minimise the impact of our workshops on your day to day activities.

7 One Intensive Week…

We propose that, initially, five days be allowed to capture and publish your Core Systems. We’re always happy to fit in with the hours you work. Everything it takes.

8… And Then A Month

Following your systems intensive week, you can continue to upload workflows and props, and the Confidence team will create and publish them to your site, for two months after we finish (pro rata for short engagements).

9 The Confidence Portal

Access Confidence via our Online Portal. We have a range of options to provide ongoing support after your included support period.

10 And All We Ask Is…

The success of your systems project depends on the active participation of you and your team.

11 Launch Your New Systems

Have your team introduce their new systems. Ownership and Accountability start here. Remember your success comes from SYSTEMS plus TRAINING plus SUPPORT. There’s no other way.

Psst! And keep them up to date

Regular review and maintenance is the key to enduring systems success. ‘Set and forget’ definitely doesn’t work here.

Systems change in response to changes in tools, materials, legislation, standards, work practices and client requirements.
