Following are the highlights of Operations:

• Without a clear organizational structure, the proper project management tools, and a strong strategic plan, businesses topple all the time.

• If the business has not been set up, you can help prepare and submit entity and tax structure information. If it has, you can still support other operational functions.

• Operations are not entirely about high-level experience or education, as how to run a business can be similar to how to run a household or community group. 

• Once the business is set up, parts of the Operations plan you can help with are systems set up, hiring and training. 

• Project management tools are incredibly helpful but users must be trained and the system must be used or it is a waste of time and money. 

• If you are seeking to increase your value, part of your job will be to see problems and identify how and where to find unique solutions.

• As the business grows, you may be entrusted to fill many roles, including identifying areas where new strategic initiatives should be created. Share your vision.

• We ALL have good ideas and, as tremendously organized people, we can be uniquely useful in overall Operations. Over time, you may find yourself running the business!

• Never hesitate to offer assistance or get involved. People will let you know if they’re not interested in your input. That is OK...on to other things.
