The Bottleneck Audit looks at where decisions go and where they stop. Ten minutes. You get a plan, in order, for what to hand off first.
We sort them into groups. Then you get a simple rule so someone else can make them.
Where two people think the same job is theirs. And the jobs nobody owns at all.
The sign-off or rule that keeps work waiting on you. And how to get rid of it.
Those are your handoffs, in order. So you can get back to the work you started the company to do.
Answer from last week, not from how it's supposed to work. Plus a few about you and your company: what you do, how many people, and why today.
What decisions came to you last week that someone else could have made?
One per line. "Approve a $300 purchase." "Pick the paint color."
What tasks do you do every week that aren't your job?
One per line. Be honest. Invoicing counts.
Think of the last time someone waited on you. What was it? How long did they wait?
What would you hand off tomorrow if you trusted someone to do it? Why don't you?
One to ten. Ten means it runs without you. Red, yellow, or green.
The decisions and tasks that should leave your desk, and who should own each one.
Five to seven moves. Number one is your Monday move. Each one has a first step.
You, a role on your team, a computer, or nobody, because you should stop doing it.
It ends with what's true, what to do, and what you get. What changes in 30 days and in 90.
