- Are you ready to execute, welcome to Volume 3

of my This Is Strategy, now it's all about executing.

The first volume we were looking at

how to understand what we are doing as a business,

what direction we are going and what targets

we are setting, what problems we are facing,

how to mitigate the problems and how to

create project plans using the value mapping

for the strategy for reaching the targets.

Now, all that's left is to execute,

but this is the most difficult part

and where most strategies they fail completely.

Stick with me and I'll tell you simple ways

of making sure that your project actually gets executed.

I'm Frederik, I have 25 years of worldwide experience

in successfully developing people and businesses.

I've built this channel because I believe

we can all grow stronger, we should all grow stronger.

So, I'm giving you five, seven, 10 minutes videos

on how you can improve yourself,

your team, your business, fast and easy.

Make sure you subscribe, stick with me, and I'll tell you

how to execute your strategy, are you ready, let's go.

(rhythmic upbeat music)

Having a fine list of projects is worthless

if you don't know how to get the projects up and running.

For me, first step in getting projects up

and running is to put them in an overview,

so that you actually know if there's any dependency

between the projects and what time

during the strategy that you have

to make sure that the project has been completed.

To do so, I use what is called the Transformation Map.

The Transformation Map is basically a map showing

my five, six, seven projects towards the end

of the strategy time, typically a year.

Within in this map, I will put the different projects.

Let's say we have a project for maintaining the price.

We do not want the price to increase or decrease

because our customers' unhappy.

What projects do I need to run to maintain my price?

When during the strategy period,

do I have to run these projects?

I'll put this in one line of the strategy map,

the Transformation Map, and so forth.

If my service level have to increase significantly,

I will need to take the projects

that I have to run, and put in the track in the

Transformation Map for the service level.

I'll do this for every of the value drivers

that I identify, you may wanna look at my

This Is Strategy Volume 2B, linked here.

If you don't know what I'm talking about,

this is where we identify the projects needed

for you to reach your strategy.

Once you've completed all this,

you may want to make just an initial thought of

what would each project cost you

and manpower and in real money, and you can write this

on the bottom line of the Transformation Map,

so you have an idea of the investment it takes

to actually execute on your strategy.

The next you have to do is for each and every one

of the projects in your Transformation Map,

you have to create a page or what ever you feel like,

where you make sure you describe what is the purpose

of this project, what is the sum of project it's a part of,

what is it depending on, when do you have to start it,

when do you finish it, and what is the costs?

Now, you've done your groundwork

for your projects and for your execution.

The most important thing for you is to take each

and every project and further break it down

into a map or into a table with, for these specific

small elements of the project, who does what, by when?

I know this sounds extremely simple

and it is extremely simple, you need to make for each

and every part of your projects,

who does what and when is it done?

If you do not do this, nobody knows when they're supposed

to do what and what to expect from them,

but unfortunately, this is not enough.

But you have to do it, this is first step,

Transformation Map, projects, who does what, by when.

Next is, the Key Performance Indicators, the measurements.

You probably heard this many times,

if you don't measure it doesn't get done

or you get done what you get measured, same here.

So if your projects, who does what by when,

you will have to break it down into measurable items.

That can be, this has to be done by this

and this has to be done by then,

or we have to increase customer satisfaction by this

or we have to make sure that the price level

doesn't go anywhere, so the price level have to be stable.

These are the indicator that the who's, who does what when.

The who's, they get measured by

throughout the strategy period.

So throughout the strategy period,

monthly, weekly, what ever depending on your indicator.

You'll have to sit with a team

and see where are we on these indicator.

You have to understand if you're not

on target, what do you need to do now?

You're an hour late, if you're not on target.

So you can't postpone this, what has to be now

to correct it and bring us back on target?

These are the simple things that

you have to do to execute a strategy.

If you're the executor of the strategy

or the executor of a share of the strategy,

one of the projects, it can only be your responsibility.

It can only be you who call for the meetings,

who makes sure you hold people responsible

for the project that they're running,

that you look at the indicators

that you discussed with the people.

Why are we not there, what did you do right to meet it?

How can we others learn from this?

If there's any correction of actions

that has to be done, you're the one who have to initiate it,

talk to the team, what are we doing here?

It's easy and fun the first couple of months,

but after a couple of months, yeah,

you get hit by being busy, and this is where

most strategies they fail because then

it's not interesting, it's not fun anymore.

Maybe even top management, they lost attention

because they also get busy and if you do this

and you lose that focus on the execution,

everything that I have said in Volume 1, 2A, 2B,

and 3 here, it's just void, forget it.

If you don't make sure that every week, every month,

you have these team meetings where you hold

people accountable and responsible for the who does what,

by when in their projects and the indicators

that you've shared with them, you're not gonna go anywhere.

It sounds extremely simple and

you know, it is extremely simple.

The difficult part here is to keep the momentum,

to make sure that you count for these meetings,

to make sure that you hold people responsible.

If you're able to do that and you've done

your groundwork, your footwork, and your preparation,

like I talked about in the other Volume,

if you've done that, you're good to go and your strategy

will be a success, simple, but very difficult.

I hope you liked this one, give it a big,

big like if you did, if you haven't

subscribed already make sure you do so, please.

is turned on so you get notifications.

Maybe there is a Volume 4 coming up, you never know.

Thank you very much for watching,

and I'll see you later, bye.

Build a Steel Bottle Opener Ring in Rhino 3D #51 (2018)- BONUS Printing File - Duration: 14:23.

Today, let's make a fox face bottle opener ring with the wrench tool in the

back. This ring is cast in steel. Let's get started!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. Since it's a Thanksgiving (Today) I'm going to

give away this ring file at the end of the video. So stay till the end of the video

I'll show you how to get this file, and where to send for printing. Starting with

this file, you can use any type of animal head online to making the bottle opener

There is some tricks to get it correctly. So let's go ahead to find the image that

we want first. You can go to the Google just typing any type of animal that you

would like to have. I'm just typing fox head

clipart, and you can pick the simple one. What we need to have is just

the outline, so pick any of the outline that you think will help you to identify

what type of animal. Let's bring in this picture using the command "Picture"

and let's go to the top view, we're going to trace this picture right here.

So let's use the "Control Point Curve" and you can go ahead to trace. You don't have

to trace all over, we just need to have the head and also we just need to trace

half of it. so I'm going to the new layer coming

here. Make the layer into the red color. So it's easier to see and you can have

it stop where your think is over the half of them, and they also want to trace

the ear

and also the nose

Alright and I also want to draw a line to show where approximately I think the

center line should be. So I'm gonna draw a line there. Holding my SHIFT (key) and

having this line moving down a little bit, and go ahead to trim anything

over the center line. So now we have that. We don't need the rest of it, the

eyes or anything. Again depends on your design. I'm going to

hide this one first. Now we also need to trim this area off, because

we want to just have our line there, and we do want to have everything as a

little bit rounded, so I'm going to use the command "Fillet Corners", and I want to

give it the fillet for radius 1, and also fillet here and here. So make

everywhere rounded. Now we are done we are going to mirror to the other side

right there, and you want to make sure the top is nice and round. The bottom one

is going to be covered by the nose, so it doesn't really matter, but you just want

to make sure the top is nice and rounded. and let's go ahead to join them. I'm

going to make this ring size very big because it's a man's ring and so the

diameter is going to be 22.2 which is almost like 13 in the size

and plus it's gonna casting in steel so I'll shrink a little bit, so I don't want

it to be like too small, and it is a huge ring, by the way, so let's go ahead to

make it into a ring. Let's go ahead and use a rectangle tool, and I'm going to

make it very wide like 19. The thickness that's make it into 2.85

so that's the ring that we have, we want to move this ring from the midpoint to

the quadrant, and now we also want to run off the corner first. so let's use the

command "Fillet Corners", and let's pick it up for radius 0.5 to make it

into the ring. All we need to do is go to the Surface- Sweep One, and you want to do

rail and cross section. Now we need to put the fox face. Move it from the

center line and let's type in "0", so it's right there at the zero

point, and we can move it up a little bit. now to decide how big this face

should actually work for the cap, we need to understand how big the cap is. So you

can go online to find a cap size or you can just open the refrigerator get one

beer out of your refrigerator and measure it, and then you can model

something really simple like this. This is just for our reference to see if that

will work. If we go ahead and go to Extruded Planar Curves- Straight. You're

going to notice that it is gonna be really sharp edges, especially when it is

meet on the intersection right there. So it doesn't look good because

it's too sharp over there. What we can do instead of extrude straight, we are

going to extrude it. Solid- Extrude Planar Curve. Instead of going straight

that we want to go Taper. you can taper into the sides that will go along with

this maybe the egg the degree is not enough. maybe I wanted to do 30 degree so

you will have something like this. Notice that when you extrude it

it's almost like 3d scale and then so it's it's like too big right now for the

top. What you can also do is you can do 1D scale back. That way I will fit

inside of a ring, and again what we are looking at is where the intersection

is so if it is too big for you just go ahead to scale it down like that.

We need to do a test just want to make sure that everything is working.

Especially if that fit into the cap. Let's do a test first, and see if that

working. Let's go ahead with "Boolean Difference" this out of this one,

and we will get this cut right there. We want to tilt it a little bit

and we want to get inside of it. What you wanted to see is you

don't want that the edge is touching if the edge is touching that means the

piece in the center you should go a little bit wider. That means you need

to go 1D scale a little bit more like this way. You want to judge in between

where there is the shape is that still maintain the form of the Fox. Things like

that. We want to get this one in a little bit there, and make sure that see

this is much better it's not gonna touch so we can do one more test by "Boolean Difference"

We can make this cap get in you don't have to have a whole cap

get in you just need to have a partial of it, especially when we have the nose.

With this curve, let's go to Solid- Extruded Planar Curve- Straight, and then

we'll get something like this. You don't have to have it really long because in

the bottom here, it should catch the cap edge, but it does need a little bit bigger I

gotta move it here or if you want to move it out that will be fine okay

Maybe that's stick (out) too much. We want to scale it down a little bit

something like this. Okay now when we look at this, it's really sharp out there

so we wanted to do is Fillet the edges, and I want to fillet

like 0.8 millimeter. It should work. So you may

end up this all the time, sometimes. It's because the little things right there.

You see that there are two seams right there, and unless you're doing the

the fillet is smaller than this seam, otherwise, you're always gonna get a

result like this. So I'm going to go back to the stage right here.

You can see that we have a seam there. To fix this issue, you're going to

delete these, and that will fix the seams. You will no longer to have that seams and

you're just gonna have it coming back a little bit or coming in a little bit to

get to the original shape. Maybe this too. I need to have them coming out a little

bit. L's do one more time, we are going to extrude it straight and

then we are going to make it bigger, moving out here, maybe going a little bit

Let's take a look how this fillet will work. Let's go ahead to use

the Fillet we used. The same radius for 0.8. Now it's working,

Uh....now it's not working because 0.8 is too big over there. So I'm

going to lower down 0.5 and let's try 0.5 here alright so now it's

working fine. It's great that opportunity, I can show you

how to fix that fillet issue. We got the front done, and try one more

time and try to rotate this and see if I catch some time as you can see it's

catch right there, so you kind of need to manipulate multiple times to get what you want.

In the back of the design, I'm going to have some hexagons right

here, so I'm going to snapping in.... to turn on the Grid Snap. Snapping any point, I

type in six us my number, and I can make it like this, and you can gradually

changing the size down or you can find out what is the standard size and

use that standard size to do this. I'm gonna simply make three

just showing you how to do it, but you can make it prettier, if you like to

With this I'm going to select all of them and just trim off whatever

in the middle and then hit ENTER and join them, so this is what the wrench is

going to be, so you can lock three different sides of the nuts over there.

What we're gonna do again we're gonna move this to the center, so let's use

the Center Center, snapping into thT zero and that will be there. this one since we

don't have to worry about the cap so we might able to just go ahead to use

extrude straight and again you can extrude it in the angle if that works better for

you but I'm just gonna use the straight at the bottom tool right there. so that

is the opening for that. this is a basically a trial you need to tweak a

little bit because the ring size different it's going to change a lot of

diameter right there. I would like to send you a STL printing file for my

gift to thank you being fans and writing the comments. You can print this

ring in shapeways if you're in the USA you can print in the shapeways they have

all different kind of a materials. This ring has been proof in working I was

printing in steal they come in different

colors, so you have the choice to a black color, brown silver bronze, gold color, and

nickel color, so those colors will enhance the personal preference. All you

have to do is leave the comment. Let me know where you're from. You can type

your city and your country. I have people coming from all over the world, that's

really amazing knowing where you're from. I'm in Detroit in USA, so like I can

type it "Hi from Detroit USA", and also subscribe my news later and I will send

you an email with this file here. I promise I won't send you junk only good

stuff from me. Thank you for watching and happy holiday. I'll see you next.

Building the Dream Final Episode: How to Build a Shop - Duration: 12:54.

you can see here we've got radiant floor throughout this section this is more

like the clients going to work on the machinery this is more storage so

there's gonna be a radiant tube heater it's gonna be the main source of heat

you can turn this on and if you don't put the tubing in before you pour

concrete you never do it again so that was the thought behind this customer

said even if he doesn't put a boiler in right away he'll have it here so if he

wants to it'll be ready to go and here in the office this will be also radiant

heat so this will be the only source of heat in this room however out here

there'll be a radiant tube heater which is a really efficient way to heat a

building they work really well getting poured so that's that is pretty exciting

got a lot of guys around here I'm gonna go ahead and set my I'm gonna try to set

my GoPro up they've already got a couple trucks unloaded got the first probably

quarter percent 25% of the building floor poured but I'll go ahead and set

my camera up hopefully we can capture a little bit of the rest of this you know

these taxi guys get up early at Saturday morning a long week

I slept in till 7:00 so I don't know so in order to get the concrete all the way

in the back of that shed with all that radiant heating

and they're gonna do this all in one for so 72 by 80 and one for they got a

conveyor truck

pretty cool they just run this out

what is cool about this dream got a heart scene

see how narrow and the depth of it up here in the front but as it goes

he gets a lot deeper

so that's a custom drain was designed and made for the space that

way it's hard to got the slope pre-engineered into it pretty cool

pretty cool the way they are able to do these buildings in one for to get these

ride on machines and these are gonna finish the they've all got set up four

different blades different finishes that way they got the ability to kind of one

of them comes in and knocks it all flat the next one comes in and polishes it up

and then the last one comes in and furnishes it that way they can just keep

kind of just keep following each other around pretty cool we're gettin eight

inch pour this is a six bag mix we're gonna go with I think it's a five inch

slump and I don't know all you guys out there that are maybe concrete

professionals or whatever I don't even know what all that means if I'm being

honest like I understand the slump the way it works and it's going to be a

sweet floor I know my customer is super pumped he's been waiting for this for

years he just told me that at this point when we get the doors on he's got a shed

with a roof doors concrete he doesn't even need heat he's been working outside

his whole life doing maintenance on the gravel drive so I'm really excited for

him he's gonna love this and I'm gonna love it I think it's gonna be an awesome

finished building so we're gonna let them get the pour going I got that GoPro

set up and we'll see how it turns out so we'll see you back here in a little bit

you

get everything poured

you

you

we had messed up I messed up on these trimmed

with an exact dimension which was 5 and 3/8 and because lumber is not exactly

perfect even though the manufacturer Mills these post two five and three

eighths the problem is we were noticing that if our post had any sort of a kick

to it and it wasn't dead-on laser straight then we were having problems

with our trim going over top of it so you can kind of see here this was one

that we did before and we're going to take this off I just left it for the

time being we couldn't get them to actually close here though is the new

trim that I just bought so it's two pieces we slid one from the outside

because no one's really ever gonna be seeing it from here

people are gonna be looking at it from over here so the hope is you look at it

from this side you're looking over the lap and we just start tucking them into

our brackets we'll punch our holes back through and bolt it all together we've

got some columns to do and I'll take off a couple gutter downspouts as well to

get to them man Greg we always underestimate the

longevity and time it takes to do these weird different detail stuff that we

don't do everyday so how about that guy's color-matched garage doors 24 by

16s got the front apron all done just

wrapped up wrapping all those columns down the lean to listen to that echo big

empty building 72 by 80 you can see here this is what typically happens in 99% of

our shops because honestly most farmers contractors whoever's putting up the

building they don't necessarily know exactly what they're gonna do but they

know they want power so surface mount with conduit they can add on let's say

they want to do a bench they can just run the wiring right where

they want it after the act add lights kind of just build the

whole system out as they go we've got a door to put in here for the office nice

20 by 20 it's gonna really look nice when it starts getting used but these

are Rainer garage doors Rainer is actually their corporate office their

worldwide headquarters is what it says is right in Dixon Illinois which is just

the town over from me and so these are their rainer used to be their tricor

series these are now a three inch thick foamed in place it's called their TM 300

I do believe they have an r-value of about 25 so 25 r-value that is

definitely one of the top rated doors out there and we got them as you can see

color matched exactly to our burnished slate steel so man this building looks

sharp we officially are probably going to end this maybe I will come back in a

long time see how this thing got moved in to see how it's being you know held

up for the customer and how it's working out but I hope you guys enjoyed the

build series I know I really enjoyed this project not often do we do one like

this and we'll see you guys on the next one make sure you guys hit that

subscribe button so you don't miss out on the next build series so thanks
