Profit Taker

Threat: High | Frequency: Common

The Profit Taker is an expert at exploiting inefficient business processes and a master of deception. The thief is indirect, stealing little bits of time that no one notices and preventing people from performing activities that make money. Whenever someone proclaims "There’s not enough time in the day,” look around for the robber. The Profit Taker moves throughout the organization, incurring intangible costs that are considered overhead and a cost of doing business. Time is squandered and opportunities are missed. The Profit Taker can be identified by performing a business analysis and controlled by implementing effective business management solutions.
