Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Learning Objectives
3. What Is Franchising and How Does It Work?
Franchising
• The word franchise comes from an old dialect of French
and means “privilege” or “freedom.” Franchising has a long history.
In the Middle Ages
kings and lords granted
franchises to specific
individuals or groups to
hunt on their land or to
conduct certain forms
of commerce.
In the 1840s, breweries
in Germany granted
franchises to certain
taverns to be the
exclusive distributors of
their beer for the
region.
Many of the most
familiar franchises in
the United States,
including Kentucky Fried
Chicken (1952),
McDonald’s (1955), Burger
King (1955), Midas Muffler
(1956), and H&R Block
(1958), started in the post–
World War II era of the
1940s and 1950s.
Shortly after the U.S.
Civil War, the Singer
Sewing Machine
Company began
granting distribution
franchises for its
sewing machines and
pioneered the use of
written franchise
agreements.
Middle Ages 1840s Civil War 1950s
LO1: Explain franchising and how this form of business ownership works.
4. What Is Franchising?
Franchising
Franchising is a form of business organization in which a firm that already has a
successful product or service (franchisor) licenses its trademark and method of
doing business to another business or individual (franchisee) in exchange for a
franchise fee and an ongoing royalty payment.
5. Two Types of Franchise Systems
Product and Trademark Franchise Business Format Franchise
An arrangement under which the franchisor grants to the
franchisee the right to buy its products and use its trade
name.
An arrangement under which the franchisor provides a
formula for doing business to the franchisee along with
training, advertising, and other forms of assistance.
This approach typically connects a single manufacturer
with a network of dealers or distributors.
• For example, General Motors has established a
network of dealers that sell GM cars and use the GM
trademark in their advertising and promotions
• Other examples of product and trademark franchisors
include agricultural machinery dealers, soft drink
bottlers, and beer distributorships.
Fast-food restaurants, convenience stores, and motels are
well-known examples of business format franchises.
• Business format franchises are by far the most popular
form of franchising, particularly for entrepreneurial
firms

9. • When Is Franchising Most Appropriate?
• Franchising is most appropriate when a firm has a strong or potentially
strong trademark, a well-designed business method, and a desire to grow.
When to Franchise?
In some instances franchising is not appropriate.
It would be nearly impossible for
Walmart to find enough franchisees with
the financial capital and expertise to
open and successfully operate a
Walmart store.
Each individual Burger King store is
relatively small and policies and
procedures can be written for
almost any contingency.
In contrast, Walmart stores are
much larger, more expensive to
build, and more complex to run
compared to Burger King.
LO2: Describe steps entrepreneurs can take to establish a franchise system
11. Selecting and Developing Effective Franchisees
Qualities to Look for in Prospective Franchisees
• Good work ethic
• Ability to follow instructions
• Ability to operate with minimal supervision
• Team oriented
• Experience in the industry in which the
franchise competes
• Adequate financial resources and good credit
history
• Ability to make suggestions without becoming
confrontational or upset if the suggestions are
not adopted
• Ability to represent the franchisor in a positive
manner
12. Selecting and Developing Effective Franchisees
Ways Franchisors Can Develop Their Franchisees’ Potential
• Provide mentoring that supersedes routine
training
• Keep operating manuals up-to-date
• Keep product, services, and business systems
up-to-date
• Solicit input from franchisees to reinforce their
importance in the larger system
• Encourage franchisees to develop a franchise
association
• Maintain the franchise system’s integrity
14. Advantages and Disadvantage of Establishing
a Franchise System
There are two primary advantage of franchising.
• First, early in the life of an organization, capital is typically
scarce. Franchising helps a venture grow quickly because
franchisees provide the majority of the capital.
• Second, a concept called agency theory argues that for
organizations with multiple units, it is more effective for the
units to be run by franchisees than by managers who run
company-owned stores.
• The theory is that managers, because they are paid a
salary, may not be as committed to the success of their
individual units as franchisees, who are in effect business
owners.
LO3: Become familiar with the advantages and disadvantages of establishing a franchise system.
15. Advantages and Disadvantage of Establishing
a Franchise System
Advantages Disadvantages
• Rapid, low-cost market
expansion.
• Income from franchise fees and
royalties.
• Franchisee motivation.
• Access to ideas and suggestions.
• Cost savings.
• Increased buying power.
• Profit sharing.
• Loss of control.
• Friction with franchisees.
• Managing growth.
• Differences in required business
skills.
• Legal expenses.
Table 15.3 Advantages and Disadvantages of Franchising as a Method of Business Expansion
17. Buying a Franchise
• From the Franchisee’s Point of View
• Purchasing a franchise is an important business
decision involving a substantial financial
commitment.
• Potential franchise owners should strive to be as
well informed as possible before purchasing
a franchise and should be aware that it is often
legally and financially difficult to exit a franchise
relationship.
• Franchising may be a particularly good choice for
someone who wants to start a business but has no
prior business experience.
• Many franchise systems provide their
franchisees substantial training and support
• Some franchise organizations are designed to
provide their franchisees a part-time rather than a
full-time income e.g. e2 young engineers
LO4: Describe actions and issues associated with a decision to buy a franchise.
18. Is Franchising Right for You?
Answering the following questions will help determine if franchising is right for you:
• Are you willing to take orders? Franchisors are typically very particular about
how outlets operate.
• Are you willing to be part of a franchise “system” rather than be an
independent businessperson?
• How will you react if you make a suggestion to your franchisor and your
suggestion is rejected?
• What are you looking for in a business?
How hard do you want to work?
Entrepreneurs should weigh the possibility of purchasing a franchise
against the alternatives of buying an existing business or
launching their own venture from scratch
19. The Cost of a Franchise
Initial Franchise Fee
• The initial fee varies depending on the franchisor.
Capital Requirements
• The costs vary but may include the cost of buying real estate,
the cost of putting up a building, the purchase of inventory, and
the cost of obtaining a business license.
Continuing Royalty Payment
• Is usually around 5% of monthly gross income.
Advertising Fees
• Franchisees are often required to pay into a national or regional
advertising fund.
Other Fees
• Other fees may be charged for various activities, including:
- Training additional staff.
- Providing management expertise when needed.
- Providing computer assistance.
- Providing a host of other items or support services.

21. Finding a Franchise
• The most critical step in the early stages of
investigating franchise opportunities is for the
entrepreneur to determine the type of franchise
that is the best fit.
• Before buying a franchise, a potential franchisee
should imagine operating the prospective franchise
or, better yet, should spend a period of time working
in one of the franchisor’s outlets.
• Prospective franchisees should also consider
attending franchise opportunity shows that are held
periodically . There are also several excellent
franchise-focused individuals
and organizations that post on Twitter (online)
23. What to ask before
deciding to buy
a franchise ?
24. Questions to Ask before Buying a Franchise
Questions to Ask a Franchisor
• What is the background of the company and its performance
record?
• What is the company’s current financial status?
• What are the names, addresses, and phone numbers of
existing franchisees in my trade area?
• How do you train and mentor your franchisees?
• If at some point I decide to exit the franchise relationship, how
does the exit process work?
• In what ways do you work with a franchisee who is struggling?
Questions to Ask Current Franchisees
• How much does your franchise gross per year? How much does
it net? Are the procedures followed to make royalty payments to
the franchisee burdensome?
• Are the financial projections of revenues, expenses, and profits
that the franchisor provided me accurate in your judgment?
• Does the franchisor give you enough assistance in operating
your business?
• How many hours, on average, do you work per week?
• How often are you able to take a vacation?
• Have you been caught off-guard by any unexpected costs or
expectations?
• Does your franchisor provide you with ongoing training and
support?
• If you had to do it all over again, would you purchase a franchise
in this system? Why or why not?
Because of the risks involved in franchising, the selection of a franchisor should be a careful, deliberate process. One of the smartest
moves a potential franchise owner can make is to talk to current franchisees and inquire if they are making money and if they are
satisfied with their franchisor. Reflecting on how this approach helped ease her inhibitions about buying a franchise
25. Advantages and Disadvantages of Buying a Franchise
Advantages Disadvantages
• A proven product or service within an established
market.
• An established trademark or business system.
• Franchisor’s training, technical expertise, and
managerial expertise.
• An established marketing network.
• Franchisor’s ongoing support.
• Availability of financing.
• Potential for business growth.
• Cost of the franchise.
• Restrictions on creativity.
• Duration and nature of the commitment.
• Risk of fraud, misunderstandings, or lack of franchisor
commitment.

• Poor performance on the part of other franchisees.
• Potential for failure.

• Promotion – Branding, Advertising
• WOM
29. Legal Aspects of the Franchise Relationship
Federal Rules and Regulations
• The offer and sale of a franchise are regulated at the
federal level.
• According to Federal Trade Commission (FTC) rule 436,
franchisors must furnish potential franchisees with written
disclosures that provide information about the franchisor,
the franchised business, and the franchise relationship.
• In most cases, the disclosures are made through a lengthy
document referred to as the Franchisor Disclosure
Document (FDD).
• The FDD contains 23 categories of information that give a
prospective franchisee a broad base of information about
the background and financial health of the franchisor.
State Rules and Regulations
• In addition to the FTC disclosure requirements, 15 states
have franchise investment laws that provide additional
protection to potential franchisees
LO6: Identify and explain the various legal aspects associated with the franchise relationship.

31. More About Franchising
Franchise Ethics
• The majority of franchisors and franchisees are highly ethical.
• There are certain features of franchising, however, that make it subject to ethical abuse. These
features are as follows:
• The get-rich-quick mentality
• franchisors have a tendency to either oversell the potential of their franchise or overpromise
the support they will offer to their franchisees.
• The false assumption that buying a franchise is a guarantee of business success.
• Any statement to the contrary is typically misleading or unethical.
A franchisor must steer clear of claims that it has the “key” to business success, and a franchisee
needs to be wary of all such claims.
• Conflicts of interest between franchisors and franchisees.
• The structure of the franchise relationship can create conflicts of interest between franchisors
and their franchisees
• Franchisor might insist that a franchisee sell a product that has high revenue but low margins
(or net income)
LO7: Discuss two additional issues—franchise ethics and international franchising—entrepreneurs should think about when considering franchising.
32. More About Franchising
