The dilemma My business is small, it currently only employs myself, my business partner, and one employee. Until now, the management’s responsibilities have been very unorganized and undefined. My partner and I were in dire need of separating daily tasks and still being able to feel as though everything was getting done. This has been a difficult problem to deal with because I feel that I have a certain way of doing things and that others will not take the proper steps to ensure everything is done correctly. The question The largest question at hand was how we could evenly split up the responsibilities while ensuring that neither managing member felt as though their workload was unfairly more than the others and that things would still be completed effectively. To answer this question, we had to ask a number of other questions. These questions ranged from, “What different kinds of tasks need to be completed and what are those tasks?” “What kind of time constraints were we under, including family, work and school?” As well as a number of other questions we needed to address. The research question(s) The questions narrowed down to a few specific problems that we needed to work on understanding. First, should we hire more instructors in order to better focus on the growth of the business as opposed to constantly working for it? Second, is there a way for each of us to train the other on what we do regarding our current responsibilities with the business? Finally, how much additional time could we each dedicate toward improving and learning our new tasks? Because we have been so sporadic with the responsibilities that we have taken on, we currently have no real idea of what we are ultimately trying to achieve. Unless we can fix this problem and answer these questions we would be bound to chaos and never continue to improve our business.
