The process of
organizational development does not stop with the legal business structures.
All businesses must also determine how they will operate. Will
the business be a soloing operation with only one employee, the owner,
or will it have management systems and several employees to handle
the dozens of roles a business can feature? There are about 60!
|
For
Example:
Will
the producer also be the chief marketer, for example, or will
some other person be engaged to conduct that chore? Those
are questions business operators must answer carefully because
they will govern the ability of the business to thrive and
grow. One question that often vexes business operators involves
human resources, or more broadly, who will do the work and
what work they will do.

Some common solutions are:
- Virtualization,
where the business uses the Internet to handle many chores that
would normally be done by employees.
- Full-time
staff, where the business employs the traditional method of
hiring specific people to perform specific tasks.
- Part-time
or contracted-out staff, where the business hires or subcontracts
out to required staff on a project-by-project basis.
- Outsourcing,
where the business hires other businesses to take care of chores
that take up too much time, such as accounting.
