Insufficient management software for process control
Even if you already have accounting software to manage financial processes and management software to handle the operational side of marketing and sales, it is not surprising that you still use Excel on a recurring basis, as it remains one of the most popular types of rudimentary process control for small business owners . This may generally be due to the lack of integration with other software that allows you to obtain information on the business workflows in a single control panel.
So, an Excel spreadsheet remains the salvation for many leaders, because even though it is hand-built, it ensures that they have a record of the most important business activities. However, we must understand that maintaining this dynamic over time is insufficient to visualize the rest of the processes , without a specific tool designed to integrate other management tools .
There are no policies on communication cameroon telegram data or transfer of information
Even if some processes are not mapped or mounted on a platform, people end up sending information outside the authorized management system at the end of the day, meaning that multiple and different operating systems arise in the process control. For this reason, they solve communication problems in the office, or they send messages via WhatsApp or internal email, which prevents true visibility of everything that happens.
In addition to the process itself, the management system must be accompanied by a correct policy on how to transfer information and what the correct procedure should be for communicating to the next person what work they need to do. Otherwise, part of the process may be failing and you are not able to control it, and this time it is not because of the lack of a dashboard but because of informal communication policies .
Typically, more than one role is involved in the inputs and outputs of processes, so the incorporation of a dashboard is extremely necessary to gather information from various processes and their assigned roles. However, a dashboard that does not include an effective data transfer policy will continue to leak information in parallel outside of that dashboard , and even outside of your company's domains.
An example of this is sending messages through various channels that are not connected to your performance or operational efficiency dashboard , which increases the chances of errors or misunderstandings during the execution of processes, commonly known as "game of telephone."
