Common Scalability Challenges: Are You Investing in the Right Things to Fuel Smart Growth?
December 13, 2013
Your company may have the market, product, and strategy in place to drive growth, but if it doesn’t properly manage these three scalability challenges, it could derail the business entirely.
When it comes to scaling a software company, there are three key components that businesses must consider before they step on the gas: People, process, and technology. And while each of those components has its own unique challenges, AtTask CTO Ted Hoy says in the video below that the biggest scalability challenge isn’t to find solutions for each of those components. Rather, it’s to deploy those components in a way that doesn’t burden your organization financially or culturally.
After all, most growing businesses today have access to the people, processes, and technologies needed to scale, but those things always come at a price. To scale effectively, Hoy says companies must first determine if the people, processes, and technology they’re adding to their organization align with their cost structure, goals, aspirations, and corporate culture.
