Point well made. The company at present is effectively just myself. I regularly meet with our CEO who also owns a printing company in the same office and I act as their prepress department when I'm not creating paperless workflow automation, developing apps, managing clients' social media marketing, or other facets of the app co.
There is one other employee acting as a CSR taking in all ink-on-paper orders. The rest of our operation is fully-automated - everything from pricing to document imposition for press output. It's really a good system.
But as my projects grow our business I may need to bring on a few additional team members. I'll likely be in control of directing our workflow at that stage and depending on the work to be done it may be an opportunity to introduce collaborative methodologies into our operation.
I've been named as the CEO's successor, but I'll have to see how I feel when that time comes. As an INTJ, I feel much more comfortable being the brains behind the scenes than the guy running the show.
