“The post listed duties, not decisions.”
A one-page decision list: what the manager decides alone, what needs you, and the limits on refunds and spending.
ELVINA · HIRE A GENERAL MANAGER
You hire a general manager. I prepare the transition
Before you post the job, settle what the general manager will run, decide and answer for. I draft the role page, a decision list, the job post and an interview guide from situations you have handled. After the offer, I turn your routines into a first-month transition plan with a check. You choose the person and when to step back.
I draft the role, the decision list and an interview guide, then the first-month transition plan. You choose the person.

What owners tell me
Why a first general manager still calls you daily
“The interview was a nice conversation.”
An interview guide with your real situations, asked the same way of every finalist.
“Staff still come to me.”
A note to the team on which decisions moved, sent when you say so.
How I take it on
From a job post to a transition you can check
- 1
The role on one page
What the manager runs, which numbers they answer for and what stays with you.
- 2
Decision rights
What they decide alone, what needs your approval and the spending and refund limits that apply.
- 3
A post and an interview guide
I draft the job post and the questions for finalists from situations you have handled. You run the interviews and call references.
- 4
The first-month handover
Your walk-throughs become short lessons and a decision guide for the new manager, approved by you before their first day.
- 5
A check you wrote in advance
At the end of the month you review the check and hand over one area at a time.
Example
A garden center hires its first manager
You said: "Every supplier call and every refund still comes to me." I start with the decision list. Example · 1 garden center
- Week 1Role page, a decision list with a refund limit, 3 situations for finalists
- Week 2Job post and interview guide approved
- Week 5You interview, call references and hire. I have no part in the choice
- Week 6Walk-throughs of opening, plant rounds and the weekly order become lessons
- Week 10You review the check, hand over the weekly order and keep large refunds

You
Define the role, choose the person and decide when each area moves.
Your new manager
Learns from the transition lessons and makes the calls on the decision list.
Your senior staff
Walk the new manager through the floor in the first weeks.
Me
Draft the role, the post and the interview guide, and build the transition plan you track.

Before you start
What working with me takes

A list of what still comes to you each week, and the decisions you would hand over first.
You get
A role page, a decision list, a job post with an interview guide, and a first-month transition plan for the person you choose.
Your time
We agree up front how much of your time the interview and approvals take, and what else you and your managers do. The interviews and the final choice are yours.
Who helps
I prepare the materials. My team sets me up, supports your account and runs your demo. A person confirms every meeting and every payment.
