The Adilas system is all linked together based on the monthly reoccurring services and/or main business platform. That piece of the puzzle fuels all of the other areas. We are proposing four main departments and then an adilas supervising board to help govern the whole.

Proposed Departments

Admin & Billing Growth Retention Product Development

Here is a link to a small two page document with a light proposal for the company structure.

Each area and/or department needs different talents and talent levels. Going forward we would actually like to look backwards and use some hindsight. Just because we were small, there were times that we somewhat forced the model to accept the talent that we had available. That doesn't always work.

Straight up, what we have done, and/or are doing, we could not have done alone. It almost takes a village...

Often traditional models tend to put one person in charge with others under their supervision. We, on purpose, are trying to create a multi-faceted people and talent structure. Adilas, as a platform, is too big and too diverse to just have one main leader who knows everything. We need all kinds of talents and people who can help in the different areas.

The goal is to align talents with tasks. As needed, we will be seeking talent to fill specific roles and needs.

A knowledge worker - what does that mean? They know something more about something and thus fill a vital role. They bring that knowledge or experience to the table. They tend to need a rhythm or a cadence. They need to have a commitment factor to help them play. They get paid based off of their need and knowledge input.

An hourly worker is just that. They have a task and work at it by the hour or by the project. Their compensation is directly tied to how many hours they put into the project, build, and/or the amount of work on a specific task.

We are very versatile, as a company, and we keep going day after day. We will keep working and refining it as we go. We love to help people and we love to help people succeed. We do need all of these pieces - it has to work together as a system. There is an old saying, if you want to go fast you go alone. If you want to go far you go as a team. To make this work, we will need both knowledge workers and hourly workers, working together as a team.

There are five major roles that need to be fulfilled in any company. Instead of just roles, ideally, you actually have people in place who can carry each of these roles and own it (their role). Otherwise you just have a smaller number wearing multiple hats. The five major roles are:

• Organizer
• Doer
• Creative
• Consultant
• Salesman

Personality test can help in different ways. Basically, that's a way to find out potential strengths and weaknesses. We all have competencies and frustrations. That's part of the game and creates diversity. No one like to be put in a box - people are not one dimensional (one little box).

Over time, all of us do tend to trend towards certain ways, styles, and habits. Ideally, looking at different personalities, allows us to understand pros and cons of the different personality types. We on purpose want to bring all the talents and skills of our people and team to the table.

Oh, how I wish we had this fully dialed in... still being refined... :)

As we keep developing, around what is already working, our goal is to keep refining the processes, create better checks and balances, define roles and responsibilities, and better allocate budgets and resources. As these changes come in to being we will be watching for better efficiency, defined responsibilities, management of small teams, true costing, and profit generating services.

We have entertained all kinds of ideas on different forms of payment and compensation. That is super fun. This may be an ongoing topic of discussion. We can dream of all kinds of stuff. Eventually, we have to help service enough clients that we can make some of those dreams into a reality. If nobody buys or wants our products or services, the discussion dies. If lots of people want our products and services, and we have a bunch of happy clients, the discussion has weight, bulk, and allows for options and dreams.

More to come on this topic... All in good time!
