Communication
is critical in any organization and usually things fail miserably
if communication breaks down.
A Procedure
Manual is a document that lists all the tasks of every department
and gets updated on a regular basis. This is potentially a massive
document, however, if you think it is a mammoth task to develop
one, you would be right.
The best way
to create a Procedure Manual is to get your team to create it
for you as they work. This may slow their tasks down a little
bit, however, overtime your business will become much more efficient.
A Procedure
Manual is a requirement as things are so competitive. If your
team does not know what to do then they should simply refer to
the Procedure Manual document to get answers. Then, if they do
not find the answer, they can simply approach you.
This is going
to save you significant time and energy. There is nothing worse
than team members constantly buggin you because they are not thinking
for themselves or trying to work things out for themselves. A
Procedure Manual will allow you to get a break becasue they will
be able to research the task themselves through your Procedure
Manual.
You should
create Procedure Manuals for every aspect of your business including
Marketing, Management and operations. This is going to speed your
business processes up and allow you to become a more efficient
organisation.
