Many businesses do not have absolute clarity around their team’s defined roles and responsibilities. This often results in owners wearing too many ‘hats’, meaning little time spent is on strategic or high-level activities that create real value for the business. Does that sound like you?
Maybe everything was working fine, ticking along nicely, and then bang, before you know it the team has grown and the wheels are starting to get a little wobbly. Now may be the time to take a step back and perform an organisational review.
You should start with building a functional Organisation Chart which visually defines departments/teams, key functions, roles and responsibilities. This is your opportunity to define clear roles and responsibilities and gain time for yourself to concentrate on key activities and revenue generation.
Studies also show that undertaking such an exercise will increase team satisfaction. There’s no better way to empower your team than to give them clarity around their defined roles, responsibilities and career development opportunities.
Having a clear organisational structure will enable your business to be more sustainable, scalable, and, ultimately, saleable.
Not sure where to start with an organisational review? We can help! Put aside a day to work with us in an initial full day planning session where we’ll discuss the fundamentals to develop an Organisation Chart. We’ll help you determine the ideal roles for the business as opposed to fitting roles to the people in your team. You’ll also gain clarity on what functions can potentially be outsourced or delegated to others.
After reviewing your current structure we’ll follow our experienced process to create a functional Organisation Chart using our highly effective templates.
We’ll provide you with recommendations and next steps for you to complete the first draft of your Organisation Chart and monitor your progress over the following weeks as you refine and finalise your chart.
Upon completion we’ll meet again to review and tweak your organisational structure
We’ll act as a sounding board for you to discuss your ideas, make effective strategic decisions and develop a better, more sustainable business model.
Call us to develop a structure that will support your future business plans.

Falling behind on your BAS lodgements looks like an administrative problem. Left long enough, it becomes an expensive one, because the GST you collected stays payable indefinitely while the GST credits you are owed disappear after four years. Here is what that looks like in dollars.
With negative gearing now quarantined for established dwellings, new house and land has become the sensible play for investors — but there is a trap in the first eighteen months. Interest on the land is denied, while interest on the construction is not. If the bank has written one loan, someone has to do the sums. Here is why it pays to split the loan before you sign.
When the draft legislation for the trust minimum tax was released, it came with a reassurance: if you do not want to restructure, you can simply make an election instead — no restructure, and no state stamp duty. That is accurate, but it is also a very small part of the decision. Here is why you should choose your structure for the eventual sale of your business, not for the announcement.
