Do you have the right people to get it done?
The thing that keeps CEO's awake at night most often is figuring out how to cover the group's responsibilities with the resources available. Some people are broadly skilled; some are more specialized. Some work really hard; some produce less. You have to figure how to fit all the pieces together to cover the total job.
To determine whether you have the right people on your team to get the job done, you have to determine the aptitudes, attitudes and skills of each individual and then evaluate the combined total.
Everyone is skilled at doing something. What skills do each of your people have that are related to the job? Who can manage the listings and buyers? Who knows how to write advertising copy that produces results? Who is great at using your contact manager?
How good is each individual at this task? Do they know it well enough to teach others? How much will it decrease your production if you have your best client care manager train someone else? Would it be better to have someone else who is less skilled do the training or would that reduce the quality of the output?
Does it even need to be done in house? If you have a employee with exceptional skill in something that needs to be cone occasionally, it might be cost effective to outsource the tasks to virtual assistants
For additional information and guidance on this topic we have posted an article on our website entitled "Do I Have the Right Administrative Team?" for you to review.
