Management Notes:
Building an effective change agent
team
A carefully constructed change agent
program is essential to any successful operational
transformation.
Quick Take Notes:
- Organizations seeking to transform their
operations frequently overlook the importance of
change agents. These handpicked leaders, spread
across an organization, implement processes, train
employees, and act as all-around role models within
change programs.
- A successful change agent team requires a clear
definition of roles and reporting structures, a mix of
skills and experience, and the ability to communicate
with and inspire the support of line managers.

Economic Notes: |
|
- International Business Confidence
- Global business confidence revived a bit in early
October. All of the improvement occurred outside of
the U.S., however, with Asian sentiment rebounding to
its strongest level since April. U.S. business
confidence remains consistent with an economy that
is not growing. While responses to the survey's
broader questions regarding present business
conditions and the six-month outlook turned notably
less negative last week. Responses to more specific
questions regarding investment and payrolls have
been and continue to be more positive.
- International Trade (FT900)
- The nominal U.S. trade deficit in goods and
services narrowed by 2.4% in August. The U.S. trade
deficit came in at $57.6 billion, $1.4 billion less than
July's revised $59.0 billion, according to the Bureau of
Economic Analysis. In August, exports increased and
imports decreased. Crude oil prices increased in
August, which in turn increased the nation's total
import bill for energy-related petroleum products to
$29.0 billion.
- Treasury Budget
- The unified monthly surplus for September was
$112 billion, slightly below the CBO's preliminary
estimate of a $113 billion surplus. In fiscal year 2007,
which ended on September 30, the federal
government ran a deficit of $163 billion. This is 34%
smaller than the $248 billion deficit recorded in
FY2006, and is the smallest federal deficit since
FY2002. Revenue gains and spending restraint led to
the smaller deficit in FY2007.
- ABC News/Washington Post Consumer
Comfort Index
- Chain store sales were essentially unchanged
again in the week ending October 6 according to the
ICSC. Year-over-year growth fell to 2.1%, the slowest
in 15 weeks as sales rose in the comparable week
last year. Warm weather was blamed for the weak
performance.
- Wholesale Trade (MWTR)
- Wholesale inventories rose 0.1% in August, below
expectations. July inventories were not revised from
the initial estimate of 0.2%. Sales rose in August,
increasing by 0.4% over the prior month as compared
to July's 0.2% uptick. The inventory-to-sales ratio was
unchanged at 1.11 in August.
- Import Prices
- The U.S. Import Price Index increased 1.0% in
September. The increase followed a 0.3% drop in
August and was led by a 5.4% increase in petroleum
prices. Export prices rose 0.3% in September, after
rising by 0.2% in the previous month.
- MBA Mortgage Applications Survey
- Mortgage demand increased 2.4% in the week
ending October 5. Purchase applications increased
2.1% and refinance applications increased 2.7%.
Application activity is relatively quiet and stable, so that
the increase in the spread of fixed and adjustable
mortgage rates signals expectations of another Fed
rate cut.
- Chain Store Sales
- Chain store sales rose 1.7% in September, the
weakest result in over three years after adjusting for
Easter distortions. Some of the weakness was due to
warmer than normal temperatures in much of the
country. Nonetheless, the vast majority of retailers
were disappointed and earnings warnings were
numerous.
- Manufacturers Index
- The Manufacturers Alliance/MAPI composite index
clocked in at 65 for September, unchanged from June.
The composite index shows a strong expectation for
an increase in manufacturing activity over the next
three to six months, and is the first quarter of 2007 to
record a higher value than one year ago.
- Jobless Claims
- Initial jobless claims decreased by 12,000 to
308,000. This is a move away from expectations, but
still generally in line with ongoing trends in the labor
market and shows that layoffs are not intensifying.
- Job Openings and Turnover
- In August, the job openings rate remained at
2.9%-unchanged for most of the past six months.
The hire rate fell slightly-to 3.4% from 3.5%.
However, the separations rate also fell-to 3.2%.
Therefore, on net the labor market remains fairly
healthy.
- Oil and Gas Inventories
- Crude oil inventories unexpectedly fell by 1.7
million barrels for the week ending October 5,
according to the Energy Information Administration,
below expectations of a 1 million barrel build.
Distillate supplies declined by 0.6 million barrels, in
line with expectations. Gasoline inventories rose
strongly by 1.7 million barrels, above expectations.
Refinery activity improved for the second consecutive
week, increasing to 87.8% from 87.5%, above
expectations. Today's report will exert modest upward
pressure on oil prices.
