Our methodology

Jacquard Associate's methodology - The Jacquard Weave - brings together the four Success ThreadsTM critical to your business: Customer Focus, Operational Speed, Financial Discipline and Leadership Practice. These four distinct Success ThreadsTM, inevitably connected to each other, are supported by goals, steadfast principles and proven projects.

  • Each Success ThreadTM is strengthened by WONDERMENT® projects, seminars and workshops, and Profit ProjectsTM.
  • Our Profit ProjectsTM are simple, proven and universally applicable; a project takes from six to sixteen weeks to complete, assuring swift and effective change.
  • Each formal project, developed in detail from years of experience, is customized to the unique needs of your company.

Our Bias Against Separate Departments

Throughout business history, functional department silos have led to actions that do not include the ideas or functions of sister departments.  All Jacquard Associates programs stress and incorporate multiple departments.  The benefits include better results through alignment and team structure.

 

Our Model for Change
We make sure that the companies we work with can change - and stay changed. Throughout each Profit ProjectTM we incorporate the LaMarsh & Associates Managed Change ModelTM along with our proprietary methodology. This combination enables us to decrease implementation time, overall project cost and resistance to change. The Managed ChangeTM Model paints a clear picture of how your company operates today, how it wants to operate tomorrow, and the "delta" - the stage in-between.

The successful completion of your company's project depends on how well you, your leader, and the project team understand the process.  This is crucial in the transfer of skills.
