One of the biggest mistake I see companies make is not having an effective inventory management system which can lead to lost revenue when products are out of stock.

I think the general mistake they make is that they are not innovative and if you're not innovative the business may remain static

If the company in status quo situation, that's the biggest mistake in the management. It will suffer and eventually, it will lead to a worst situation.

One common mistake most business owners make is hiring does not qualified to hold certain positions simply cause they do not want to spend much in hiring the right person.

Some companies are very bad at budgeting and it is not a good thing because at the end of the day they will spend more than what they are supposed to spend because they lack good idea of budgeting

I think that not being able to manage funds and not being able to cut the expenses of the company is one of the main mistakes companies often make. This seriously hurts firms in a bad manner.

The major problem of companies I have noticed is about the way workers or workforce are treated. They are sometime mocked and humiliated which is very unfortunate for some people

One of the mistakes I see businesses make in operations is non standardization of production procedures. This results in non uniformity in quality of products.

There is one organization I knew that used to sack staff with reckless abandon. The lady that owned the organization was high handed. She would sack a staff at the gate. Today, the organization is holding on to straws for dear life. That's because the customers stooped patronizing her because of that.
