Explore our business growth programs
We offer four key programs that teach you the critical knowledge, skills and values that enable you to take your company to the next level and allow you to bring your executive team along on the journey. All companies start in the one-day Assessment Clinic and then progress to Growth Ramp or Growth Modules. Execute & Grow is our most advanced business growth program.
How our programs are different
Frameworks to guide business growth
The Centre’s frameworks provide the wholistic perspective necessary for sustained company growth. They describe the stages of company growth, the changing roles of the CEO and executive team, the responsibilities of a leader, levels of delegation, evaluating employees’ performance, and the elements of an awesome organisation.
The Knowledge Framework for Growth is comprised of six elements and is applicable to all companies:
- Products and Services
- Marketing and Sales
- Dealing with Externalities
- Building the Organisation
- Financing Growth
- Managing Yourself as a Leader
Learn with your executive team
One person cannot grow a company alone. Growth requires a team effort, and it’s essential that all members of the team wholeheartedly believe in the mission, values, vision, strategy and the plan.
Business owners, CEOs and Managing Directors, and their team, need to learn the growth concepts together, be challenged by Growth Experts, and be exposed to other companies using different systems, strategies and tactics to grow. This is why our business Growth Modules are designed for the business leader and their executive team.
The business Growth Modules program is a unique opportunity to get away from the business and spend time with your executive team – and other company teams.
Our Growth Experts teach you how to think holistically about all aspects of your company – from people to strategy, systems to finance, products to customers. They teach you how, then challenge you to think bigger. They hold you and your team accountable for doing what you say you’ll do to address the problems inhibiting growth. All this will be reflected in the three-year growth plan that each team presents at the end of Module 3.
Focus on growth
All of our programs are focused on business growth. All the presentations, tools, frameworks, advice and counsel are focused on helping you and your team learn what to do when, why and in what order, so that you can grow your company.
There are many reasons why CEOs and executive teams come to our programs. Their company may have grown too fast and lost a lot of money; they want to grow, but don’t want that to happen again. The company may have grown, then stalled because it did not have the right people and infrastructure to sustain growth. The company may not be growing, and no one can figure out why.
Sometimes the issues are external, other times they are related to the product/customer fit, marketing/sales, or money. But at least half the time the issues are related to how the CEO and executive team lead, plan and whether they are building an awesome organisation.
Our programs, and in particular our Growth Modules, help the whole team unlock their company’s growth potential and grow as leaders and managers as well.
