CONNECT : LEARN : THRIVE
These workshops are specifically designed for invested companies to develop their leadership capabilities and understanding, develop a growth mindset and engage with others to set their companies up to successfully build value and create wealth. They focus on establishing an understanding of themselves as leaders and the impact they have on their business, the benefits to growth of establishing a clear vision early, along with core values, a high performing culture, strong board and good investor relations to ensure a focus on building value.
The workshops are designed to be informative, engaging, and action orientated, taking a coaching approach, encouraging peer learning, sharing of experiences and the development of trust and understanding, within each cohort which can continue as a strong peer network post programme.
Participants will be encouraged to build a development plan for the series, ideally with input from their board and team, with between 2 and 3 personal and business objectives. To support this they will be encouraged to decide key action points to deploy within their own business, at the end of each workshop to ensure the learning is put into practice in their business.
In addition this programme will incorporate a 1 hour 1-2-1 coaching sessions between each workshop session to support embedding the learning back into the business and delivery of the development plans.
