🎙 This episode discusses the importance of systemising a business and the key roles needed to make it successful. Dr. Steve Day emphasises the role of the business owner in driving the systemisation process and building the right team around them. 

He highlights the need for a systems implementer to capture and manage tasks, procedures, and projects and a systems assistant to support the documentation and refining of the systems. 

The episode also touches on the significance of allocating resources, such as time and personnel, to ensure the systemisation journey does not stall.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

💡 The key to successfully systemising a business is to allocate resources, particularly time, to allow someone to focus on implementing systems with 100% attention.

💡 The dream team for systemising a business includes the owner, ops manager, systems implementer, practitioners, and assistants.

💡 Hiring a new systems implementer and admin person or promoting someone with no other responsibilities to the systems implementer role can help ensure the systemisation process is successful.

💡 Failing to allocate enough resources, especially time, to systemisation efforts is a common reason why businesses fail in this process.

💡 Sharing valuable podcast episodes with friends and colleagues can also help them benefit from the information.
