Get it out of your brain and onto paper where it belongs. Getting a great coworking space up and running is one thing; learning how to let go and delegate to others consistently and reliably is another matter altogether.
Never fear! We've got your back. With our Employee Manual Program, we'll combine our existing templates and processes with information we get from you on how you do things to produce simple and clear procedures for your team to use.
We'll start with an in-depth interview, which may span a few hours, in which we'll go over as many aspects of how the business currently works. We'll document undocumented procedures, identify which areas are easy or hard to delegate, and distill the results into a living document.
