The Transitions’ Growth Programme

 

Back to Development & Training Programme Index

If you are the owner or chief executive of a small business with the potential for growth, then the Transitions’ Growth Programme could help you make that all-important breakthrough sooner rather than later. By stepping back from the day-to-day distractions of running your business you’ll be able to take an objective look at where you want to go and plan how you intend to get there.

Transitions’ Growth Programme is for the owner managers and top teams of smaller businesses. The programme can be run on a 1:1 basis, but far greater impact is achieved when it is run, as is normally the case, with a group of six to ten businesses. This is due to the huge benefit achieved from the sharing of experiences and insights with others. We all tend to think that our problems are unique to us. This is rarely the case, and the impact of simply learning from how others have dealt with their problems is incredible.

The Programme normally consists of one full day and five half days of intensive workshops and presentations spread over two months, but this can be adapted in response to specific needs. The focus throughout is on those key issues vital to your business fitness, survival and future growth. The aim is to achieve a measurable impact on the overall performance of your business.

The Key Objectives of the Programme:

To provide you with the confidence that will come from:

  • Knowing exactly where you are going.
  • Having a realistic action plan.
  • Being on top of your finances.
  • Avoiding nasty surprises
  • Developing new business contacts
  • Sharing problems and worrying less
  • Objective, impartial help and advice
  • Above all, having a real sense of being in control through the knowledge that it is you driving the business and not it driving you!

Structure and Content of the Programme:

One full day and five half-day workshops and presentations, spread over two months.

  • From the work done during the Programme, the writing of the action plan or business plan you need to take your business forward.
