Why Building an Organizational Chart Makes Sense

Creating a functional organizational chart is an

incredibly helpful exercise for companies in the $750,000 or

above range.

Organization charts can help you identify and reach growth goals you have set for

the company.

What is necessary to build a great team of employees.

First, create an in depth chart of

your current employees and

what each person does on

a daily basis.

Then look at what your future plans are for the company.

Learn who you could hire that could transform your company.

Map out where you see gaps in where you want

to go and the resources you

have to get there.

If we use marketing as an example, think through everything that marketing has to do:

• Website• Blog posts• Print advertising• Online marketing• Social media marketing• Etc.

Some of these jobs will be done by your staff and some sourced to outside vendors.

If you write down every job that has to be done in your company and put a name of

one of your staff by that job…

You’ll find that some of your people do way too many things.

You will either have to hire staff to fill the hole or hire a contractor to do the job.

Don’t look just at what the jobs are

now, but also at what new duties will have to be done to meet your growth goals.

Based on your growth plan, this functional chart will allow you to

• Shift work from overwhelmed staff to those with fewer duties

• See where you will need to add staff

• Determine if using outside vendors is a better alternative

• Decide when to fill these “holes”

By looking at holes, and the costs involved in filling those

staffing holes …

Learn HOW to hire the right people to help your company grow.

You can also determine if your goals are realistic or if they have to be revised due to

timing or cost.
