Tom Azzarelli with B2B CFO - Unoffical Organization Chart
Hello, I'm Tom Azzarelli with B2B CFO
Every one in a company knows about the official organization chart,
you know, who does what and so forth.
But did you know that businesses also have an unofficial organization chart?
It's true, identifying what it is can help your company avoid the financial
risks associated with growth.
Here's what I mean,
every company's unofficial organization chart is comprised of just three types
of employees;
Finders, Minders and Grinders.
Finders are entrepreneurial and are future thinkers who
generate new business and build new and leveraged relationships that multiply the volumes and
revenues of the business. Minders
are the managers in the business
they typically live in the past, relying on historical information to improve the
future performance.
They make sure things get done efficiently.
Grinders are the employees
that do the actual work of the company.
They're the one's who build and ship the products or deliver the services.
When a company experiences growth
typically Finders stop finding new work and start spending most of their time
doing Minding and Grinding activity.
Since the entrepreneur business owners
is usually the number one finder in any company
this dilution of a critical Finder's role
can lead to a downward cycle, were growth declines and
expenses increase and cash runs out.
To avoid this Danger Zone,
know your company's unofficial organization chart,
know who's in it
and follow the B2B CFO golden rule;
Let the Finders Find,
The Minders, mind and
Grinders grind.
I hope this helps you understand the dynamics that effect the growth and
prosperity of your company.
If you would like to talk further give me a call, thanks and have a great day.
