Promote Yourself to CEO
Here’s the paradox of small business growth: The more your company grows, the harder it can be to grow yet further. Why? Because the management practices and habits that worked when your company was smaller are no longer adequate.
The owner is often the main bottleneck. You may not be “presidential” enough in your management style. You need to “promote yourself to C.E.O.”—that is, focus on executive responsibilities and be less of a floor manager and worker.
Easier said than done! While you are trying to keep your focus on the entire forest, many things conspire to keep you stuck in the trees and underbrush.
The purpose of this workbook is to help you upgrade your management style, management practices and management structure—for yourself and for your key people—so that you can take your company where want it go.
This 31-page e-tool has exercises to help you diagnose your own situation—your strengths and weaknesses, your habitual ways of running your business—then develop a game plan to correct these. Tools and exercises include:
- How not to manage a growing business.
- The ladder of executive capabilities.
- How to upgrade your management skills.
- How to manage the expert
- How to groom your key people.
