multination or national organization due to need it without blueprint organization managing is very
difficult given below segments for explain:

Architects understand that a poor building design leads to inefficiencies cost overruns and
construction delays. A well-conceived architectural blueprint by contrast helps prevent such problems
likewise executives must have well-conceived business blueprint to design successful company.
The origin enter in fourth economical duration so its needs to use updated business model for
compete to other business.
4. Operating
Business operations vary according to business type, industry, size, and so on. Operations for a brick-
and-mortar store, for example, will look different from operations for an online retailer. The former
will need point of sale terminals to process purchases, for example, while the latter will need e-
commerce software that provides electronic shopping cart services. Business operations for most
businesses, though, take into account the following elements:
Process
Staffing
Location
Equipment Or Technology
Process is important because of its impact on productivity and efficiency. Processes done manually
that can be done quicker with software or that duplicate work done by other departments can cost a
business time and money. Business operations processes should be documented department by
department so that operations managers can study them to find areas for improvement,
consolidation, or cost-savings
Staffing is determined by the processes. Who needs to do the work outlined in the work processes
and how many of them are needed? A small business might need a few people who are generalists
while a large company will need many more people who are specialists.
Location is more important to certain types of businesses than to others – and the reason for the
location will vary. A sole business consultant might only need room for a desk at home, a pet
groomer will need a location with parking, and a software developer will need to be located in a
region with access to appropriate talent.
The equipment or technology needed for optimum business operations will often have an impact on
location. The pet groomer with a staff and several grooming bays will need more space and different
equipment from the mobile groomer who offers services provided at the pet’s home. A carpet
cleaning business won’t need a storefront, but it will need a garage to store its trucks plus office
space for business operations management.
Network Operation
Big & Small companies must ensure both precision execution and fast cycled innovation. This
required that operation process be designed to fully integrated and fast updating.
Now a days for networking organization using different software to manage their organization which
is given below.

5. This is software is link with different app and databases for updating their record and managing their
business.
Hierarchy
Entrepreneurial
Innovating
The process of translating an idea or invention into a good or service that creates value or for which
customers will pay.
To be called an innovation, an idea must be replicable at an economical cost and must satisfy a
specific need. Innovation involves deliberate application of information, imagination and initiative in
deriving greater or different values from resources, and includes all processes by which new ideas
are generated and converted into useful products. In business, innovation often results when ideas
are applied by the company in order to further satisfy the needs and expectations of the customers.
Managing
The process of planning, organizing, directing, and controlling resources to achieve specific goals.
Planning Organizing Directing Controlling
6. A plan enables you to take your business concept beyond the idea stage. It does not, however, get the
work done. You have to organize things if you want your plan to become a reality. You have to put
people and other resources in place to make things happen. And because your note-taking venture is
supposed to be better off with you in charge, you need to be a leader who can motivate your people
to do well. Finally, to know whether things are in fact going well, you’ll have to control your
operations—that is, measure the results and compare them with the results that you laid out in your
plan. Figure 6.1 "The Role of Planning" gives you a good idea of the interrelationship between planning
and the other functions that managers perform. The Role of Planning Functions of Management If you
visit any small or large company, not-for-profit organization, or government agency, you’ll find
managers doing the same things you’d be doing to run your note-taking business—planning,
organizing, directing, and controlling.
Learning
The goal of the training program is to help micro entrepreneurs start up a business, or improve their
existing business, by teaching a set of core business skills:
o Generating business ideas
o Choosing a marketing strategy
o Using a balance sheet
o Creating a business plan
o Creating a cash flow budget
o Taking and repaying loans
o Keeping business records
o Managing the use of profits for personal use
This might seem like an ambitious list, considering the fact that many participants can’t read or write,
and that the suggested length of the training is only three days. Many other topics that could be
taught, perhaps more easily, like producing sales materials or improving sales techniques, and indeed
this is often taught to micro entrepreneurs. However, a lack of more fundamental business skills,
especially financial skills, is often what causes the biggest problems for micro entrepreneurs. So this
program tries to take up the challenge of communicating such skills. It’s true that sophisticated
budgets or lengthy business plans can’t be expected from participants who can’t read or write.
However, the basic principles and processes behind the list of core business tools above are actually
not too complicated, and can well be understood as long as the usual accounting language is dropped,
and things are explained in a more creative way, using everyday words, drawings and stories. Teaching
current Business Owners Amongst current micro business owners, there’s also a lack of basic business
skills, and few have tried to use tools like a budget or the marketing mix. So core business skills are
useful for almost all micro entrepreneurs, which means that the same set of skills can be taught to
both beginnings and current business owners. But when training the group of current business
owners, the pace can be faster, and finer details or more complicated examples can be covered.
Presenting the same topics for both target groups will make the training program simpler to deliver,
and also make it easier for the two groups to meet and help each other after the training. This can
facilitate the creation of a community of practice around entrepreneurship.
7. Leading
Leadership is buzzword, like empowerment, that everyone uses yet most people still struggle to
define. Many believe that leadership is just a matter of charisma and vision either you have it or you
don’t. Nothing is further from the truth. Leadership skills, like the management is all about coping with
complexity, leadership is all about attracting and mobilizing the resources for change. As can be seen
below, both involve complementary activities.
o While management involves planning and budgeting, leadership involves define a clear,
compelling vision and ensuring that it is translating into a set of actionable strategies and
initiatives.
o While management involves organizing and staffing leadership involve attracting motivating
energizing and retaining top talent inside an organization and within partner suppler and
customer network.
Engaging
A person can be engaged in the business of dealing in firearms regardless of the location in which
firearm transactions are conducted. For example, a person can be engaged in the business of dealing
in firearms even if the person only conducts firearm transactions at gun shows or through the Internet.
Those engaged in the business of dealing in firearms who utilize the Internet or other technologies
must obtain a license, just as a dealer whose business is run out of a traditional brick-and-mortar store.

organization buildup perfect competition and organization managing controlling through this possible
and also ideas generate through blueprint of network organization and take decision for future
growing business.
