Currently,\u00a0there are many\u00a0startup\u00a0companies\u00a0in Indonesia.\u00a0Various kinds of products are continuously made in order to meet market needs which can later lead to sales profits.<\/p>\n

Well, for those of you who want to know how the organizational structure of a\u00a0startup is\u00a0and what positions are in it, then you must read this article to the end.<\/p>\n

Definition of\u00a0Startup\u00a0Company<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"Startup<\/p>\n

Yevgeniy Brikman (2015) explains that a\u00a0startup\u00a0company\u00a0is a group of people who create a new company organization by producing products that are highly needed and sought after in the market.<\/p>\n

Generally,\u00a0startup businesses are\u00a0closely related to technology, so the organizational structure of\u00a0startups\u00a0must be able to adapt more quickly.\u00a0Newly\u00a0born startups\u00a0generally still have to adapt their business models to dynamically moving market conditions.<\/p>\n

The products produced must also be really needed by consumers so that the company can later survive well.<\/p>\n

Startup\u00a0Organizational Structure<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"Startup\u00a0Organizational<\/p>\n

Even though a\u00a0startup\u00a0company\u00a0is a company that is just starting out, it is\u00a0still very important to\u00a0create a\u00a0startup\u00a0organizational structure\u00a0.<\/p>\n

This\u00a0startup company structure includes the positions, functions, responsibilities, rights and obligations of each individual in the related position or department so that later the company can run more efficiently and more effectively.<\/p>\n

Startup\u00a0companies\u00a0will generally use a\u00a0flat\u00a0or\u00a0flat\u00a0startup\u00a0organizational structure\u00a0.\u00a0In\u00a0this flat\u00a0startup\u00a0organizational structure\u00a0, the hierarchy and lines of authority for each employee tend to have the same rank.<\/p>\n

Within\u00a0this\u00a0startup\u00a0organizational structure\u00a0, later the CEO will be at the top and other employees will be in the same rank under the leadership of the CEO.\u00a0Each individual in it has the authority to make their own decisions based on their work experience and expertise.<\/p>\n

This is clearly different in companies that have many employees and more complex structures.\u00a0Where the decision-making process will generally rely on the hierarchy in the company’s organizational structure itself.<\/p>\n

The more growth and development of the company\u00a0startup\u00a0.\u00a0Then later the organizational structure of the\u00a0startup\u00a0must continue to be updated so that the\u00a0startup\u00a0company\u00a0can continue to develop properly.<\/p>\n

When a\u00a0startup\u00a0company\u00a0has developed and has more than 50 employees, the\u00a0startup\u00a0organizational structure\u00a0can be changed again to be more formal.<\/p>\n

In\u00a0a formal\u00a0startup\u00a0organizational structure\u00a0, the CEO’s administrative duties will later be distributed to managers in sharing their functions.<\/p>\n

Startup\u00a0companies\u00a0will also be able to use a\u00a0startup\u00a0based on product\u00a0organizational structure\u00a0, where each employee will be placed based on a particular product.<\/p>\n

Benefits of\u00a0Startup\u00a0Organizational Structure<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The\u00a0startup\u00a0organizational structure is\u00a0certainly able to provide many benefits for\u00a0startup\u00a0companies\u00a0to achieve success.<\/p>\n

In the future, the company will have clear responsibilities and goals in each part of the organizational structure, so that it will reduce ambiguity in the division of labor and the decision-making process is in the right hands.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0startup\u00a0organizational structure\u00a0will also create a strong company credibility, especially in the eyes of investors who will invest their capital in the\u00a0startup\u00a0company\u00a0.<\/p>\n

Role of Position in\u00a0Startup\u00a0Organizational Structure<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Newly formed\u00a0startup\u00a0companies\u00a0generally have only a few employees and will grow more complex as they develop and require broader marketing.\u00a0Well, here are the roles and positions in the\u00a0startup\u00a0organizational structure\u00a0.<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0Chief Executive Officer\u00a0(CEO)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A CEO must make a mature strategy and vision in order to develop his business and maintain good relationships with external parties, such as investors.<\/p>\n

The CEO must be able to determine which market the company should enter, what products it wants to launch, and how to differentiate it from other competitors in the market.<\/p>\n

Behind a successful company there will always be a quality team and individuals.\u00a0A CEO must be able to place employees in the right position and maximize his team continuously so that the company has good performance and is able to achieve targets.<\/p>\n

When you already have investors, the CEO must always update company information to investors.\u00a0CEOs must also be able to manage a list of investors well based on their expertise so that they can be contacted when they need capital.<\/p>\n

In addition, a CEO must also be able to predict the market trend of the product to be made, so that the product does not lose consumers in the market.<\/p>\n

An important role of the CTO in the\u00a0startup\u00a0organizational structure\u00a0is to help companies achieve their financial and marketing goals, as well as maintain product excellence in a more sustainable manner by leveraging innovative technologies.<\/p>\n

The job of a CTO in the early days of a\u00a0startup\u00a0company\u00a0was an\u00a0app architect\u00a0.\u00a0If the first version of the product is created successfully, it will require various updates from the original product.\u00a0Now in this case, the CTO will handle all product improvisation processes or hand it over to a senior\u00a0engineer\u00a0.<\/p>\n

The CTO must prepare a good server, manage the domain<\/a> and SSL\u00a0certificate<\/a>\u00a0, as well as\u00a0third-party tools\u00a0and ensure the level of website security.<\/p>\n

Later the CFO must check the company’s financial condition in the previous month or at a certain time period in order to ensure the company still has a sufficient budget and is in a healthy economic condition.<\/p>\n

So, the CFO has the responsibility to process, control, and also determine various matters relating to the company’s finances, including the company’s financial plans and reports.<\/p>\n

4. Chief Marketing Officer (CMO)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Within the\u00a0startup\u00a0organizational structure\u00a0, the CMO has full responsibility for marketing management.\u00a0Its various tasks include increasing the prospects of users or customers of the company in order to increase the profits and also the revenue of the company.<\/p>\n

CMO has a very important role in increasing\u00a0brand awareness\u00a0and retention of the target market, as well as leading a more effective marketing strategy.\u00a0Another job of the CMO is to create marketing campaigns and conduct market research<\/a>.<\/p>\n

5. Chief Operations Officer (COO)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

At the beginning of the formation of a\u00a0startup\u00a0company\u00a0, generally this COO task will be carried out by the CEO.\u00a0His duties are various things related to company operations, such as making\u00a0the\u00a0first\u00a0board deck\u00a0, making initial business models, explaining the work to all employees, selecting vendors, determining product prices, and so on.<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Although in the early stages of creating a\u00a0startup, the\u00a0number of employees is still small, but making a company organizational structure\u00a0is very important.<\/p>\n

You can use\u00a0a flat-type\u00a0startup\u00a0organizational structure\u00a0where all\u00a0startup\u00a0employees\u00a0have responsibilities and duties based on each of their own functions.\u00a0In the early stages of creating a\u00a0startup\u00a0company\u00a0, generally the\u00a0startup\u00a0organizational structure\u00a0will be filled by the CEO, CTO, CFO, CMO, and also COO.\u00a0Each of the\u00a0chief’s\u00a0duties\u00a0must be reported to the CEO.<\/p>\n

When a\u00a0startup\u00a0company\u00a0is growing, then as an entrepreneur you have to add resources, including human resources and financial resources.\u00a0Determine a healthy financial condition is the desire of all business people, including\u00a0startup CEO.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
