Cut to the chase with RAPID

If you’re not looking ahead, you’re falling behind

Are you laying the groundwork to put your company out of business? The sad reality for most people is that they are setting their organization up for failure without realizing it. Maybe they are too reliant on the way things have always been done. Or maybe their competitors are shifting expectations for the market. Given the pace and competition that companies face today, organizations are forced to pivot or die. But how can you be sure the course you choose is the right one?

In RAPID Transformation: A Outcomes-Based Approach to Drive Results, Ali Davachi is sharing the method he created to help companies pivot when it matters most. With over 30 years of experience, Davachi’s writing is informed by real-world examples and a proven track record. Whether it is a seachange in an industry or a global pandemic, disruption will be a part of your business. Davachi’s RAPID method is designed to change the way individuals approach the concerns facing modern businesses, but its viability translates into problem-solving on even the most granular level.

RAPID stands for Research, Analyze, Plan, Implement, and Decide. At its core, RAPID is a way for anyone to approach a challenge. RAPID is a human process, creating a mindset that is capable of tackling deep organizational issues. Devoid of fluff and sentiment, RAPID is a data-based strategy that removes emotions from the equation, yielding the best results time and time again.

“RAPID is designed specifically to help you uncover the answers you need and, most importantly, put them into action in order to steer your firm to better results,” Davachi explains. “But what primarily makes RAPID work is this: having the courage to change.”

Through Ali’s clear, comprehensive outline of RAPID, readers will be able to tackle challenges as large as capitalizing on disconnected supply chains and as small as what to do for dinner tonight.

Testimonials

To say that Ali is a rare talent simply would not do him justice. In my twenty-year IT career, I have never come across another senior manager who had as much technical and business knowledge as Ali has. From running companies to complex multifaceted installations/projects, Ali would be an amazing addition to any senior leadership team.

- Michael Pass

Chief Technology Officer, CircleBlack, Inc.

I have known Ali for seven years and have worked with him as a business colleague as well as a service provider. He has an outstanding knowledge of all aspects of IT and general business requirements. He has done an excellent job whenever I have worked with him. I would highly recommend him.

Ken Landis

CEO, Landis Capital LLC

I would highly recommend Ali for any technology project. During the time I have known Ali (more than seven years), he has always demonstrated an ability to quickly analyze a business situation in order to offer viable solutions at a reasonable cost. Not only is Ali technically competent, he is also dependable, reliable, and trustworthy. I would hire him again in a heartbeat should I be in a position to require someone with his skills and abilities.

Adriann Dalton

vice president, DentalPlans.com

Ali has a great blend of technology and business expertise. He is detail oriented but also sees the big picture. He focused on delivering business value by leveraging appropriate technology, and this pragmatic approach is refreshing. A good guy.

Andrew Haines

cofounder and managing partner, Nitro Trading Systems

In his role as CIO at Wenger Swiss Army, Ali was the consummate business partner. In addition to seamlessly upgrading our systems and reports, Ali’s natural business instincts and curiosity proved to be a significant asset in assisting with driving sales. Ali spearheaded the first electronic ‘shop in shop’ Wenger executed with one of our largest customers, driving double-digit increases and providing us with branded visibility previously not seen. His participation and involvement in meetings regarding managed inventory, forecasting, and category management added greatly to the net results and helped establish Wenger as a key supplier to some of our largest customers like JC Penney, Sam’s Club, and Costco. As a valued member of the senior leadership team, Ali fully understood our goal of realigning brand and category perceptions and used that knowledge when developing the look, feel, and customer interaction into our website. Again, the results speak for themselves with the only business achieving double-digit gains ahead of plan. As the VP of sales, I valued Ali’s assistance and involvement, as they were critical to exceeding our sales goals

Bill Lippe

president North America, DELSEY Paris

Ali is a consummate professional and a very talented and capable technologist. He is passionate about ‘building’—i.e., creating something from nothing—and he most certainly demonstrated his ability to ‘build’ at Transactis. Over the span of nine months, he led the complete rearchitectue and rebuild of the firm's core operating platform and systems, putting the company on sound footing for growth in the coming months and years. I highly recommend Ali to companies in the early/mid-stage phase of growth who are looking for a talented and driven technology leader.
