Successful video production depends on process management - Rich: "Process management is key because, otherwise, you're going to get behind the 8-ball, you're not going to have the project done on time, it's not going to be released in time with the rest of the marketing campaign, and you're going to be left out in the cold for not doing your job."

Roger Moore (no, not 007) is our guest today. Roger currently teaches Analytics at the University of Chicago where he’s also an alum of their MBA program. Over his 30-plus year career he’s been with a number of major consulting groups such as BCG, Gartner, Booze and PWC. He’s currently running his own Data and Analytics firm. This conversation is foundational. Roger helps us unpack the critical components and structures of a good data, analytics and reporting organization / strategy. Unfortunately, due to the enormous expanse of this topic, we weren’t able to get into detailed discussions on the mechanics of the process. Fortunately, Roger’s already agreed to come back for deeper dives in the near future. Stay tuned.
These podcasts are dedicated to bridging the gap between business & IT. Each episode looks at different aspects of this relationship as we explore ways to help the two groups better communicate. We're passionate about this topic because it's a failure to communicate that causes 75% of all IT project failures and costs the US $1.8 Trillion every year—8% of US GDP!
If you don't want to become one of these statistics and want to learn about an easy way to avoid it, please visit our website and schedule a free consultation.
Alternatively, if there's some topic you'd like to hear more about, or you have an idea about how we might better serve our listeners, please shoot us an email at dave@bridgingbusinessit.com. We'd love to hear from you.

I read a quote that fit well with Today’s episode: " Never let success get to your head, and never let failure get to your heart. ". We know being an entrepreneur involves trying and failing and iterating your way to success - but how do you overcome failure and the chaos typical of high growth companies? Our guest today lived this for years in her business, challenged by a feast or famine revenue cycle, focused on innovating into new markets, but struggling to control the growth and the quality at the same time. Their team invested heavily in process implementation – turning bootstrapping into scaled opportunity. Jodi Scarlett began her business Pro Star Cleaning & Restoration as a local home cleaning business and now does large scale construction and disaster restoration projects across the country. We discuss how tempering the entrepreneurial “go factor” using a process framework, actually enables more creativity, innovation, and growth.
I am talking with Tracy Lynn Morgan, Tracy is using her 14+ years of process improvement and productivity expertise in the corporate world, to now help mom entrepreneurs scale-up their biz while scaling-back their hours.
How? Well you guessed right, with systems.
She helps them streamline their biz systems and level up their productivity so they can finally step into the freedom lifestyle they deserve... and always have time for the things that matter most, Tracy adds.
Now in my eyes, this is not just for mom entrepreneurs, this is for anyone who has a business and feels like they don't have time for the things that matter most. A lot has to do with not having systems and processes in place and working from a place of "putting out fires" left and right all day long.
In the conversation Tracy reminded me of the quote
"Leaders - If you're too busy to build good systems, then you'll always be too busy."

Most entrepreneurs make the mistake of waiting too long to get the support in place they need to grow their company beyond their current limits.
Don’t be like most entrepreneurs, who quickly become the bottleneck in their own business and stagnate their growth.
In this episode, I’m going to give you the shortlist of the 7 things you need to know before you start outsourcing to create a virtual network, and how to get started if you’re ready to free up more time to do work you actually enjoy doing.
BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:
Why it’s not actually quicker or cheaper to do it yourself
What it’s costing you to solve problems by taking action
How to know when it’s the right time to start hiring
What position to hire for first
The two critical processes you need to have in place when hiring
