Organizational Structure and HR

This exercise defines who does what in your business: planned positions, how each will be hired, and their monthly cost.

Purpose

Before hiring anyone, it's worth outlining the complete structure: how many positions the business needs, under what model (CLT or PJ), and the expected monthly cost for each. This provides a clear view of personnel costs even before any hiring occurs, and serves as a basis for the Personnel exercise in Financial Modeling.

Summary Panel

At the top of the page, four numbers summarize the structure: how many planned positions exist, how many people are on staff already allocated, how many open vacancies still need to be filled, and the estimated monthly cost summing all positions.

Registering a Position

Use the green + button to add a position, or click the pencil icon on an existing position to edit it. Each position has:

  • Position/Role and, optionally, Area/Department (used for grouping in the organizational chart).
  • Hiring type (CLT or PJ) and Quantity of people in that position.
  • Estimated monthly cost per person — optional, but it feeds the page's cost summary.
  • People in this position — also optional: you can leave the vacancy as "open" (shown with a "?") or associate a name, as happens with the Production Manager position, for example, when someone is already hired.

Link to Financial Modeling

Each position shows whether it is "Linked to Financial Modeling" or "Not linked to Finance". A linked position is considered in the Personnel exercise of Financial Modeling — meaning its cost actually enters your financial projections. A position registered here but not linked remains only in the structural planning, without impacting the finances yet.

AI Support

The AI button in the top right corner helps suggest an initial organizational structure based on the rest of your plan (products, channels, expected operational volume). Always review the suggested hiring type and cost — they are a reference, not a definitive labor calculation.

Tips

  • If a position doesn't have a defined cost yet, the "Estimated monthly cost" summary at the top of the page will be underestimated — it's worth filling in the cost even for open vacancies, with an estimate.
  • Check if the most important positions for the operation (those that directly generate revenue) are linked to Financial Modeling — it's easy to forget this link when registering a new position.
  • Use Area/Department from the start, even if the business is small today — it makes it easier to organize the organizational chart as the team grows.
