The Story
Vocal Manoeuvres Academy, led by Alison Rogers, is a beacon of musical education. Over twenty-two years, Alison has nurtured countless voices, driven by her mission to honor each person’s authentic voice. The academy, part of the broader The Manoeuvres Group, offers unique programs in voice training and choral coaching. Alison’s journey began at fifteen, inspired by a Welsh neighbor who taught her the transformative power of music. However, after decades of hands-on involvement, Alison faced the challenges of business burnout and stagnation.
The Challenges
Despite a lifetime of passion and dedication, Vocal Manoeuvres Academy hit a plateau. Alison found herself entangled in every aspect of the business, a common plight among small business owners. The onset of COVID-19 added additional stress, reducing staff numbers and complicating operations. Alison recognized a recurring pattern: her extensive involvement, while initially beneficial, was now a bottleneck. She lacked exposure to typical workplace practices, operating on intuition rather than structured systems, which limited growth and efficiency.
The Solution
Enter SYSTEMology, a game-changer for Alison and the academy. The Catalyst program provided the framework she needed to systemize her operations effectively. SYSTEMology’s approach of capturing current processes rather than ideal ones was pivotal. With guidance from SYSTEMology experts like James Brown, Alison learned to extract and document key operational systems, reducing dependency on her direct involvement. Hiring a Systems Champion was a crucial step, allowing her to leverage SYSTEMology’s tools and methodologies fully. This strategic shift enabled the academy to recover from COVID setbacks and scale sustainably.
