Culture determines the environment, strategies and practices that inspire and engage employees and you as a franchisee to perform optimally and is important to wider company morale and maintaining good relationships.
Great performance happens when cultural attributes are closely aligned with and support both the franchisor's and franchisee's goals. A culture that is congruent and clearly communicated provides endless benefits to everyone in the franchise organisation including greater effectiveness and brand equity.
A company that shares your cultural preferences will prove more compatible and help you reach your performance potential.
Matching your core values with a franchise's core values creates compatibility and harmony. Having shared values provides a solid foundation for a long-term business relationship.
Like-minded people have a basis for understanding, communicating and exercising judgment. Values alignment builds strong brand recognition.
Our research and that of others, show that there is a strong link between financial performance and values alignment. When the values of an organisation are in alignment with the aspirational values of you as a franchisee, the result is high performance.
For greatest satisfaction and effectiveness, you should seek a work or business environment consistent with your natural working tendencies.
Work Style translates into how you will delegate, direct, motivate, manage, evaluate and resolve day-to-day business situations.
Work Style is particularly important for you as a franchisee, as you will be held responsible for aligning your business with the pace, priorities and direction the franchise outlines for the system.
Stages of Growth are determined by a company's managerial style, organisational structure, formal systems, major strategic goals and founder/owner involvement.
As a franchise organisation grows, the systems and procedures will adapt to support an evolving business model, the needs of the franchisees and to satisfy end-user demands.
Within each stage of business, your skills and goals as a franchisee need to complement a franchisor's plans and market expansion strategies. A franchisee that is in-step with the franchise organisation's Stage of Growth will prove more compatible and likely perform better.
Your business skills and competencies are important. More important however, is how those competencies complement those a franchise is looking for to achieve high performance.
Having complementary skills and competencies provides a framework for forming collaborations between you and a franchisor. It reduces redundancy, makes wiser use of resources, provides points of correspondence and thus leads to greater value, compatibility and performance.
