Steve Chopp on value management in mid-sized private companies

Steve Chopp, currently CFO and EVP of Strategy for Lief Labs, describes his experiences implementing value-based management at smaller private companies. These companies tend to be less complex and the implementation process can be easier and faster, but it is still change management so there needs to be communication, training, etc., to help people see what is changing, how it affects them, and what they need to do differently. And since smaller companies tend to have tighter budgets for such things, they need to be resourceful, using, for example, train-the-trainer approaches.
