Operations for a brick- and-mortar store, for example, will look different from operations for an online retailer. The former will need point of sale terminals to process purchases, for example, while the latter will need e- commerce software that provides electronic shopping cart services. Business operations for most businesses, though, take into account the following elements: Process Staffing Location Equipment Or Technology Process is important because of its impact on productivity and efficiency. Processes done manually that can be done quicker with software or that duplicate work done by other departments can cost a business time and money. Business operations processes should be documented department by department so that operations managers can study them to find areas for improvement, consolidation, or cost-savings Staffing is determined by the processes. Who needs to do the work outlined in the work processes and how many of them are needed? A small business might need a few people who are generalists while a large company will need many more people who are specialists. Location is more important to certain types of businesses than to others – and the reason for the location will vary. A sole business consultant might only need room for a desk at home, a pet groomer will need a location with parking, and a software developer will need to be located in a region with access to appropriate talent. The equipment or technology needed for optimum business operations will often have an impact on location. The pet groomer with a staff and several grooming bays will need more space and different equipment from the mobile groomer who offers services provided at the pet’s home. A carpet cleaning business won’t need a storefront, but it will need a garage to store its trucks plus office space for business operations management.

Hierarchy Entrepreneurial Innovating The process of translating an idea or invention into a good or service that creates value or for which customers will pay. To be called an innovation, an idea must be replicable at an economical cost and must satisfy a specific need. Innovation involves deliberate application of information, imagination and initiative in deriving greater or different values from resources, and includes all processes by which new ideas are generated and converted into useful products. In business, innovation often results when ideas are applied by the company in order to further satisfy the needs and expectations of the customers. Managing The process of planning, organizing, directing, and controlling resources to achieve specific goals. Planning Organizing Directing Controlling
- 6. A plan enables you to take your business concept beyond the idea stage. It does not, however, get the work done. You have to organize things if you want your plan to become a reality. You have to put people and other resources in place to make things happen. And because your note-taking venture is supposed to be better off with you in charge, you need to be a leader who can motivate your people to do well. Finally, to know whether things are in fact going well, you’ll have to control your operations—that is, measure the results and compare them with the results that you laid out in your plan. Figure 6.1 "The Role of Planning" gives you a good idea of the interrelationship between planning and the other functions that managers perform. The Role of Planning Functions of Management If you visit any small or large company, not-for-profit organization, or government agency, you’ll find managers doing the same things you’d be doing to run your note-taking business—planning, organizing, directing, and controlling. Learning The goal of the training program is to help micro entrepreneurs start up a business, or improve their existing business, by teaching a set of core business skills: o Generating business ideas o Choosing a marketing strategy o Using a balance sheet o Creating a business plan o Creating a cash flow budget o Taking and repaying loans o Keeping business records o Managing the use of profits for personal use This might seem like an ambitious list, considering the fact that many participants can’t read or write, and that the suggested length of the training is only three days. Many other topics that could be taught, perhaps more easily, like producing sales materials or improving sales techniques, and indeed this is often taught to micro entrepreneurs. However, a lack of more fundamental business skills, especially financial skills, is often what causes the biggest problems for micro entrepreneurs. So this program tries to take up the challenge of communicating such skills. It’s true that sophisticated budgets or lengthy business plans can’t be expected from participants who can’t read or write. However, the basic principles and processes behind the list of core business tools above are actually not too complicated, and can well be understood as long as the usual accounting language is dropped, and things are explained in a more creative way, using everyday words, drawings and stories. Teaching current Business Owners Amongst current micro business owners, there’s also a lack of basic business skills, and few have tried to use tools like a budget or the marketing mix. So core business skills are useful for almost all micro entrepreneurs, which means that the same set of skills can be taught to both beginnings and current business owners. But when training the group of current business owners, the pace can be faster, and finer details or more complicated examples can be covered. Presenting the same topics for both target groups will make the training program simpler to deliver, and also make it easier for the two groups to meet and help each other after the training. This can facilitate the creation of a community of practice around entrepreneurship.

Many believe that leadership is just a matter of charisma and vision either you have it or you don’t. Nothing is further from the truth. Leadership skills, like the management is all about coping with complexity, leadership is all about attracting and mobilizing the resources for change. As can be seen below, both involve complementary activities. o While management involves planning and budgeting, leadership involves define a clear, compelling vision and ensuring that it is translating into a set of actionable strategies and initiatives. o While management involves organizing and staffing leadership involve attracting motivating energizing and retaining top talent inside an organization and within partner suppler and customer network.
