My business requires management of employees, and I will be the first to admit that this is one of the toughest parts of the business for me.
After reading TMF and Built to Sell, I want to focus on taking a hard look at our office and making sure there is an actual SYSTEM in place...meaning that instead of just evolving day to day, I want to map out on paper how projects come into an out of the office (from sales to delivery), and then consider the best way to align our workforce with this understanding.
Can anyone recommend background reading that would lend itself to this goal? I've spent some time on Amazon, and am concerned that the HR books are written for HR Managers and the Project Management books are written for PMs...I want something that can be implemented in a small entrepreneurial environment, not something for mid-level managers at some Big Pharma company.
One option is this: Business Model Generation
Anyone read that? Other recommendations?
Thanks in advance!
