This Is Why Every Business Should Have SOP's | Daily Thoughts

Many business leaders believe the way business is run is clear for everyone in the organization but the reality is that the further away from the day-to-day activities the less insight into how business is done we have. I used to say this in my automotive corporate world that the higher you are on the management ladder, the further away from the cars and the less time you spend driving the products we sell.

If you wonder how well organized and documented your business is, ask a new employee after they have been through your onboarding process. You might be surprised by what you hear.


The reality is that a diligently organized well-documented business opens the way to that self-managing self-reliant organization every business owner dreams about.

But the process of documenting the SOPs is tedious, costly, and the business landscape changes so why should an organization spend time creating their User Manual?
