The five roles
Who does what?
بالعربيةخمسة أدوار جزئية لجمعية منتجين صغيرة: المهام، والشخص المناسب، والوقت الأسبوعي لكل دور.
When to use it
When you set up, then at every six-month review.
The framework
Three questions to choose: Who enjoys what? Who is good at what? Who has the time?
| Role | Tasks | The right person | Time per week |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coordinator | The weekly meeting, writing down decisions and who carries them out, following up on what's late | Organized, patient, respected by everyone | About 3 hours |
| Quality lead | A monthly sample from every member, visits, hygiene, cold chain and labels | Precise, firm but kind | About 4 hours |
| Orders and sales lead | Collecting orders, delivery day, partner shops and restaurants | Sociable, quick to reply | About 5 hours |
| Treasurer | The daily notebook, money owed, the five numbers | Trustworthy, comfortable with numbers | About 3 hours |
| Content and communication lead | Photos, the catalog and prices, messages, producers' stories | Loves the phone and taking photos | About 3 hours |
- Part-time roles, not full-time jobs. At the start, one person may hold two roles.
- Each role has one named person responsible, even if others help.
- Nobody is born an expert: AI can teach you any role step by step.
What you walk away with
Five roles with five names, for at least three months.
