The Challenge As a small organization facing incredible growth potential,
Packers Plus Energy Services was in a state of flux two years
ago. The company was ready for significant growth and development
but the three-member management team was not as well prepared.
The organizational chart hadn’t kept up with the increase
in work and there wasn’t a comprehensive plan for the future.
The Solution Chuck Bean and Carmen Goss of Baxter Bean were asked
to help and they quickly learned that Packers Plus needed to make
some major changes to its vision and management philosophy. The
team at Baxter Bean started its research by asking key questions
to better understand the existing structure at Packers Plus and
its plans for the future. Next, each member of the Packers Plus
management team provided their ideas and philosophies in one-on-one
discussions with Baxter Bean. From there, two different workshops
helped the Packers Plus management team determine where they were
and where they wanted to go. The workshop focused on developing
a company vision, growth aspirations, a new company structure,
a growth model and a three to five year plan.
Out of these workshops, Packers Plus was able to establish both
short and long term goals and determine gaps in their current
company structure.
After the intense work with Baxter Bean, Packers Plus then moved
to implement their new plans and projects. Baxter Bean was involved
in the process through a series of follow up meetings. Once the
majority of changes were in place, Chuck Bean was asked to provide
ongoing leadership and management direction on an annual basis
to the executives and managers of Packers Plus at its spring meeting.
The Results The changes for Packers Plus have been incredible. Following
the workshops, the company hired several key positions to create
a layer of management in the company that helped download important
tasks from the management team to a wider circle of people. The
management team was then able to focus on new opportunities and
prepare for future growth. From this, Packers Plus was able to
communicate its new vision to its employees, customers and suppliers.
All of this combined to catapult Packers Plus from a small company
to a significant player in the oil and gas sector.
