There are many businesses out there that are constantly improving themselves and building up to offer new services and better products. This is what all businesses should do, however there are some that seem to believe they can sell exactly the same product and grow forever.
The structures that businesses use vary depending on many factors, but size is usually most important. Large businesses need to have many line managers that report to the directors as there are generally too many people for one director to watch over.
Directors need to be out of the loop that employees are in so that they can see where to improve a business. If a director is too involved with helping finish the work then they won’t see that it isn’t necessary if they take on a new employee.
There are many levels to businesses but the persons high up must have control. If directors had no control then no one would work for them. Similarly there needs to be a clear chain of command that shows the control all the way up to the directors in order for people to know who to report to.
If a business doesn’t have control over its employees then no work would get done. Businesses with this control will get better results from their employees, and businesses without will easily lose their direction and develop nothing for their customers.
Directors need employees to do the legwork and menial tasks that must be done. A director has to focus on growing the business and developing new products or services to provide to those they serve. If a business doesn’t operate in this way they’ll end up losing out on the benefits of this structure.
