Management problems are one of the most common investment risks. Indeed, without a good management system that will help to accurately distribute responsibilities, carry out planning and coordination of actions, even with talented people and ingenious technologies, business efficiency will decrease with an increase in the number of employees. About what stages of development each company goes through I described in detail in the book “Small Business. Big game.”
When a company has a product or service of acceptable quality and a certain number of employees, this means that it has passed its first stages of organizational development. But at the same time, more and more problems in personnel management are beginning to arise. This is an inevitable stage in the organizational development of any company. If at this moment the company begins to create a management system, it remains small.
Manual control combined with an increase in the number of employees will lead to an overload of the head and even investment in development will not help to make the company large.
In this case, the only solution for the business owner is to learn how to organize and manage the activities of his company. Of course, this cannot be achieved without self-training (it is possible to read narrow-profile books of management) and increase the competence of the business owner and his team with the help of specialized consulting companies. A striking fact is that no matter what size the company is in question, whether it is small or large, the range of functions that must be performed and controlled is practically unchanged.
In any business, you need to deal with legal issues, advertise, sell, provide a product or service, monitor quality, work with partners, etc. Moreover, if the company is small, it is much more difficult to control all these functions, because they all fall on the shoulders of a small number of employees. That is why managing a small company is much more difficult than a large one - more combining functions, more chaos and more difficulties with people. For this reason, small businesses need vital management tools to sooner or later become medium and then large.
The activity of Visotsky Consulting is that we help to develop such a system taking into account the characteristics of the activity and introduce it in the current business so that this implementation goes smoothly, without compromising operational activities. In this area, we are the largest company, we have more than 400 consulting projects in various types of business. This is a carefully thought-out and tested in practice project School of Business Owners , the implementation program takes 12 months.
The program is very accurate, every element, every task of the program is checked many times, so that our clients business owners get good results.
One of the fundamentally important tools that underpins the management system and is being implemented by the Visotsky Consulting School of Business Owners is the company structure. Its development and implementation takes about a month and a half. We call it the Organizing Scheme. It is named because it describes all the functions that must be performed in the company for successful business.
With the Organizing Scheme, it becomes clear who is responsible for what functions and who is subordinate to whom. It does not matter what size of the company, management needs to understand what functions must be performed in order for the business process to produce the expected result. Organization is possible only when each employee understands their functions and knows the functions of others, so that they can interact with them.
