Advisory Programmes
If you know you want to form an Advisory Board, we can help:
Growth Plan Programme
An Advisory Board can help you most if you have some traction and some clarity about where you want to grow the business. They can then challenge and add value to your plans quickly before moving into giving you the right support to execute on the plan. If you feel you still need help to work out your direction and create a strategic overview for the business, we can help. The Growth Plan Programme is a series of one on one workshops over a 3 – 6 month period to create your strategic growth plan. This will give you the strategic direction you need to a) choose the right people for your Advisory and b) know what you need from them once you get started.
