Doonails is a leading e-commerce company specializing in personal manicure products. Founded with a passion for expressing individual beauty, Doonails offers a diverse range of high-quality manicure and nail care products to care tailored to their customer’s individual preferences. Doonails is actively expanding its product range and market presence.

The challenge:

Doonails struggled to establish clarity about the company’s future direction and align its growing team towards common goals. The lack of a clear company vision and direction,  slowed down the team and affected overall performance metrics.

• Lack of Clarity: Unclear vision and goals led to confusion among team members.
• Operational Dependency: CEO was heavily involved in day-to-day operations, limiting strategic focus.
• Alignment Issues: Team cohesion and alignment was lacking, affecting productivity and morale.

Accountability: Inconsistent accountability structures impacted performance and decision-making.

How did Remode Address Doonails Challenges:

Through strategic guidance and implementation of structured frameworks, Remode enabled Doonails to overcome its initial hurdles and evolve into a cohesive, goal-oriented organization. 

The partnership clarified the company’s path forward and empowered its team to drive growth and innovation independently.

1. Vision and Mission Definition: Collaboratively developed a clear vision and mission statement that guided all company activities.
2. OKRs Implementation: Introduced Objectives and Key Results to align team efforts with overarching company goals.
3. Leadership Development: Shifted CEO’s focus from operational tasks to strategic leadership, fostering an environment conducive to growth.
4. Accountability Framework: Established clear accountability structures through the Abasi system, specifying roles and responsibilities across teams.

Results:

• Improved Clarity and Alignment: Team members gained a clear understanding of company goals and their individual roles in achieving them.
• Enhanced Efficiency: Reduced dependency on the CEO and founders for day-to-day operations, allowing for more strategic pursuits.
• Increased Team Effectiveness: Improved collaboration and communication among teams, leading to higher productivity and morale.
• Cultural Alignment: Identified and addressed personnel misalignments, fostering a cohesive and supportive company culture.
• Transition to Self-Management: Progressed from a directive-driven organization to a self-managing entity, achieving an 8/10 on the self-management scale.

• Cultural Fit Clarification: Through the clarity brought by Remode’s framework, identified individuals not aligned with company culture and values, facilitating necessary personnel adjustments.
