Why Your Org Structure Should Look More Like a Spidergram

When building your organizational structure, here’s a game-changing idea:
👉 Think beyond roles—focus on tasks and functions.
Why? Because roles can blur. The same person might handle accounts receivable and accounts payable—or lead marketing while supporting logistics during international expansion.
Here’s a systematic approach I love:
The Spidergram. 🕸️
It’s a flexible, visual way to map out:
All tasks and functions within your organization.
Who’s currently responsible for each.
Where gaps exist (future roles).
Start by listing every task—big or small—and assign it:
✔️ To someone on your team.
✔️ Or to yourself (in the early stages).
✔️ Use placeholders for roles you’ll hire as you grow.
This system lets you stay agile, plan for growth, and ensure nothing gets overlooked—even if you’re a one-person operation right now.
Pro Tip: Your org structure is more than a chart—it’s a roadmap to your future. Start building it today.
