program the value of goods you offer may not be as good • Push the program to get results • Audit results • Stretch program to do more • Keep the organization growing • As MVO goes so does the organization • Value programs should operate as if it were there, but not there • Results get monitored and published • Recognize those involved
It is assumed that organizations have a value program already. It is the responsibility of the value program manager to establish initial program goals and to keep the program on track with continual improvements being implemented to improve the organizations goals.
