Are you passionate about your ONE transformation?

Do you know those small bags of baby carrots you’ve bought hundreds of times? Did you know that those are milled and sculpted from regular sized carrots?

A functional org chart looks like a regular org chart, but has one big difference. It also includes the top 3-5 key responsibilities for each position.

It helps make it clear to everyone on your team what the roles are and what their top priorities are.

Are your client files as organized as they could be?

Back when I was a freelance web designer during grad school, I had to come up with a way to keep my client files organized.
