Org Design & Accountability Chart

Seats, not people: the 6 seats every $1M–$50M business needs — and who owns yours · by HireSphere AI

Businesses scale past their org chart long before anyone redraws it. Assign an owner to each of the six seats below — one name per seat, one seat can have one owner — and we'll show where the structure depends on you, where it depends on nobody, and which gap to close first.

Vision & Leadership
Owns: Strategy, culture, big relationships, capital, the 3-year picture.
Operations / Integrator
Owns: Runs the week: priorities, cadence, cross-team issues, making the plan happen.
Sales & Marketing
Owns: Pipeline, revenue targets, brand, pricing — owns the top line.
Delivery / Service
Owns: The product or service customers pay for: quality, capacity, margin.
Finance & Admin
Owns: Cash, reporting, budgets, compliance, systems — owns the numbers.
People & Talent
Owns: Hiring system, onboarding, performance, development — owns the bench.

How to read it

  • Red = you. Every seat you hold is a seat the business can't run without you in.
  • Amber = nobody / shared. Shared accountability is no accountability — this is where balls drop.
  • Green = owned. Now define what "good" looks like for that seat and measure it.

A structure snapshot, not an org design engagement. Six seats is a starting frame — larger businesses split them.
