How you bring in your revenue is important. Project-based vs recurring revenue will dictate and change your team structure. Often, agency owners don\u2019t realize this and just push into the market to bring in more revenue, without the thought for how this will change (or disrupt) their team models. Team models have to adapt over time as the revenue of the organization and the size of the team increases. In a sense, the owners must do the disrupting to the org\u2019s model, and do it with care and strategy so the team can walk with the expanding organization through the chaos that is ultimately the result of these disruptive changes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Service organizations who do not do this can:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">overwhelm the owner (and team)<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">confuse the team as to what role they are to adhere to in the organization<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">minimize the impact of the value of their offerings<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">bloat the knowledge management required to move services through an expanding organization<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">give poor client service<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and much more<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One key point we are finding in the research interviews is that the organizations who get this right actually restructure their teams based on some key team sizes:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8 to 12 \u2013 this is when team skills need to be focused on their specific strengths and move away from team that \u201cdo everything.\u201d Owners\/founders must leverage leadership and senior teams at this size as well.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">15 to 25 \u2013 this is when service organizations need to begin to \u2018departmentalize\u2019 \u2013 that is, they have to begin arranging their organizations into departments \u2013 Creative, Account Management, Strategy, and C-suite activities.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are even further changes that team structures must adopt as they grow larger but these two <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">striads<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> above dictate most agency sizes.
