A small business achieves its peak growth potential when its leaders seek optimal balance across all business processes as even a single growth decision is made.
This balancing discipline that is critical to healthy growth we know as Gain Staging.
A small business relies on managers to make growth decisions one business element at a time, while considering the effect the action will have on adjacent aspects of the business. An analogy is a sound engineer that makes decisions about audio levels during music production, measures the impact his change will have on the next processor in the chain, and that impact on the next, and so on in order to minimize distortion and achieve the best sound. In music, as in business, Gain Staging is fundamental to balanced healthy growth.
