Michael Gerber, The E-Myth
Many business owners struggle at first doing everything in their business because they are the business. Before you hire anyone, you are the bookkeeper, the form creator, the receptionist, the consultant, and the salesperson etc. A major challenge for business owners is releasing some control and getting others to help run the business so that it doesn’t completely take over your life.
A process map is a planning method that visually illustrates the flow of work. It outlines the steps within a process that produces a result. The purpose of process mapping is to illustrate how a process works visually. It allows teams to easily understand how to carry out a process and identify inefficiencies. Process mapping is very helpful for process analysis and process improvement.
You’re a business owner, but you are so much more. You have probably never thought of yourself as a coach. Have you been in a situation where you have advised or encouraged someone?
When you have tried many strategies but your team aren’t 100% invested yet in your systems, there’s a strategy that often gets overlooked but done the right way, may just be the answer to finally getting everyone on board and paddling in the same direction.
If you are in the start-up stage, systems should not be your focus. Just to be clear, when I’m talking about systems I mean doing things like spending time working on workflows, documenting procedures and assessing automation tools etc.
Empowering your team to make decisions on their own will reduce the need for some meetings, phone calls and emails. Empowerment gives your people the space they need to succeed and learn.
