What got you here will not get you there
What got you here will not get you there. Early growth often relies on speed, instinct, and a few key people holding things together. But as you expand into more customers, products, or geographies, that same setup starts to crack.
As businesses expand, their primary risk is not competition, but rather the internal challenges of their own operating model. That is why it is imperative to refine your operating model before chaos takes hold. It is about aligning how the business actually runs with where it is heading, managing risks and opportunities in a systematic way. That means:
Clarifying how value is created and delivered, deciding what to make in-house vs. what to outsource
Redefining structure and decision rights: Establish clear decision-making forums and accountability via the RACI model and updated job descriptions.
Standardizing core processes such as Hire-to-Retire (H2O), Source-to-Pay (S2P), Order-to-Cash (O2C), and Record-to-Report (R2R).
Harnessing technology, data, and talent to make informed decisions and improve performance.
Scaling effectively means building an engine that drives growth consistently. It is not about adding more control, it is about making sure the right things scale.
Is your business facing operational inefficiencies due to a dysfunctional operating model, hindering its smooth operation?
