Edition 2: What is your “I”: Pain Point

The "I" in our name stands for "Innovation." It is the rock we stand on and our business philosophy.

Mentioned in the previous reading, "I" represents more than just an identity; it is a combination the essence of your strengths, challenges, and potential for growth. Building upon the foundation laid in our previous discussion, Innovation for Automation (IFA) now jumps into a crucial aspect of your organization: Pain points.

Locating the Pain points

Pain Point: (noun)(plural): a persistent or recurring problem (as with a product or service) that frequently inconveniences or annoys customers. Sometimes, these pain points are concealed beneath the surface, lurking in the shadows of routine operations, overlooked, or underestimated.

At IFA, we understand that identifying and addressing pain points is pivotal for sustained success. It's not just about celebrating your strengths; it's about conquering your weaknesses. Sometimes the biggest barriers to progress are right in front of your face, waiting to be recognized.
