Lumission's New Consulting Effort: A Free Program for SMEs

In an innovative initiative, Lumission, headquartered in Minato, Tokyo, has unveiled a complimentary management consulting support program targeting small and medium enterprises (SMEs). This program is designed to address critical challenges faced by SMEs, such as over-reliance on individual executives, inconsistent decision-making processes, and a lack of replicability in management strategies.

Program Overview

Many SMEs struggle with essential decision-making in sales, pricing, and human resources, often relying on the personal insights and experiences of their CEO. Lumission's program aims to transform this dependency by helping CEOs articulate and structure their decision-making frameworks, enabling their organizations to operate cohesively, regardless of who is making decisions. The registration and initial usage are entirely free, offering a no-cost management analysis and consulting service.

Background: The Invisible Growth Barriers for SMEs

Across various sectors, SMEs commonly face several hurdles, including:

• - Sales are strong, but profits remain unstable.
• - Decision-making fluctuates between employees, leading to a lack of consistency.
• - Operations stall in the absence of the CEO.
• - Excellent talent leaves, drastically impacting performance.
• - Short-term pressures overshadow long-term strategic planning.

These issues often stem not from a lack of skill or effort, but from the absence of shared decision-making frameworks. Lumission aims to resolve these systemic challenges by institutionalizing the CEO's decision-making processes.

Service Features: Achieving Consensus in Leadership

Through the 'CEO's Doppelgänger' component of the program, Lumission distills universal management themes relevant to all SMEs, irrespective of their field. Key focus areas include:

• - Structuring decision-making criteria
• - Approaches to pricing and trading conditions
• - Sales workflows and critical judgment points
• - Customer lifetime value and continuity planning
• - Talent development and evaluation philosophies
• - Vision and long-term strategies

By addressing these factors, Lumission seeks to create organizations capable of making consistent decisions, even in the CEO's absence.

Changes Observed in Participant Companies

Many firms that have engaged with the program report significant improvements such as:

• - Decreased variability in decision-making, with a clearer path for employees.
• - Stabilized profit margins and reduced instances of aggressive price cuts.
• - Accelerated development speed among younger employees.
• - A substantial reduction in the decision-making burden on the CEO.
• - Evolved into organizations that operate smoothly without the CEO present.

Participants have expressed sentiments like, "It feels like there is another CEO within our organization."

Why Offer This Support for Free?

Lumission prioritizes fostering long-term trust and support for SMEs within the community over immediate revenue generation. This free management support program enables business leaders to seek guidance easily and objectively assess their challenges.
