It's natural for your team structure to evolve organically over time with growth. However, when your organisation outgrows its structure, it can lead to inefficiencies, dissatisfaction, and hindered performance.
So, how can you evolve your structure to enable your team to perform at its best?
Start by reevaluating your team roles and structure with fresh eyes. Consider these critical aspects:
✅ Does your structure align and enable your strategy?
✅ Is it designed for people or purpose?
✅ Do you or your leaders have too many direct reports?
✅ Are there inefficiencies or confusion?
✅ Are current reporting lines helping or hindering you and the team?
✅ Does it enhance and enable customer engagement and experience?
✅ Does it allow for future growth opportunities?
✅ Are there opportunities for automation, outsourcing or admin support?
✅ What's getting in the way of effectiveness and efficiency?
The right structure can empower your team and drive success. Whilst change may not be possible overnight, planning for an ideal future structure will inform decision making and get you moving in the right direction.
