"We've always done it that way."
Those six words can be surprisingly expensive.
Maybe your tuition process was created when you had 40 students.
Now you have 240.
Maybe your chart of accounts made sense ten years ago.
Maybe your purchasing process still requires three people to approve a $25 expense.
Processes that once served your school well may no longer fit its needs.
Growth requires us to periodically reconsider how we operate.
That doesn't mean everything needs to change.
It means being willing to ask whether the process still serves its intended purpose.
Is it efficient?
Is it consistent?
Does it create accountability?
Does it provide useful information?
If not, maybe it's time for an update.
Something to think about:
What's one process your school continues using simply because it's familiar?
If you'd like help simplifying financial processes that have become unnecessarily complicated, let's talk.
