It was part of our new strategy to give time toward the
administrative functions of DrivenByQ. In hindsight we did this at just the
right time. It gave us time to carry out calculations, write reports, analyse
figures, check bank accounts and chase late payments.
It was easy to think we were on to something because the
manager’s time quickly filled up with lots of little jobs that needed doing. Each
of us who own the business now spend a whole week as full-time Manager.
I thought we were working on the business but in reality, we
have fallen in to a false sense of security. What we should really be doing is finding
the time to generate new and innovative ideas which either improve efficiency
or lead to measurable growth.
