Create an organizational strategy

Instructions

  1. List all of the roles in the company
    Write a list of all of the different roles in the company. Cover everything from the CEO and CFO down to the individual day-to-day workers. Don’t just think about the business in its early stages; think back to the end goal you envisioned for the business and consider all the roles needed to keep that business running.

  2. Organize them into a hierarchy.
    Next, organize those roles into a hierarchy, with you at the top as the business owner. Create a simple diagram with lines connecting each person, demonstrating exactly who everybody reports to. Without a clear hierarchy, your business will be chaotic.

  3. Write down specific tasks for each role.
    Finally, write down specific tasks for each role in the business. What exactly does the CFO need to do? What does the head of marketing do? Think specifically about what their role covers. For example, your accountant needs to track incomings and outgoings, manage your tax affairs, deal with payroll issues, and advise the business on financial matters. Create a list of tasks for everybody in the business.
