Strategic Leadership Development Program & Courses UK

Calling all Goldman Sachs 10KSB or Strategic Leaders graduates!

You’ve finished the programme, you’ve learnt so much and now the real work begins. Where do you start when it comes to turning all of that learning into action? What does the theory look like in practical terms to ensure that you take your business from good to great? We know that, without accountability, support and challenge it is easy to lose focus on those high pay off activities that will enable you to gain traction in your business. And this is where our Growth Springboard Programme comes in.

Why not join one of our small groups of MDs (no more than 7) from non-competing businesses (all graduates from either the GS10KSB or our Strategic Leaders Programmes). We’d like to invite you to participate in a series of facilitated quarterly workshop days which provide you with ‘the board you can’t afford’ and ensure that you build on the learning. The aim is to ensure that every member of the group is stretched, challenged, supported and, most importantly, made accountable for delivering on their business growth intentions.

These quarterly full day sessions are expertly facilitated by a Morgan James Consulting Leader and will give you the opportunity to: Share your greatest challenges and opportunities with a closed group of MDs who act as sounding boards and coaches to help you to overcome or capitalise on them Enter ‘the Panic Room!’ Bring your worst nightmare or challenge to the group for us to intensively focus on that challenge and help you to find a solution to the issue Build Your Leadership Competence: we will introduce models, ideas and discussions that address your business priorities which might include: recruitment and performance issues; decision making; making the most of the opportunities; B2B versus B2C selling; funding for growth or sustainability; product development; mergers and acquisitions; R&D opportunities; accessing new markets; PR and social media; using psychometrics for greater awareness; cultural change and challenges; getting the vision off the paper & into the behaviours; how to stop being everyone’s dad (or mum!) in your business!…plus many others topics that members bring to the table can be addressed through these sessions Learn from the experts: We regularly invite another guest who has ‘been there, seen it, done it, made the mistakes and masterminded the recovery or sale!’ to inspire you to overcome your own blocks and build your business Put the Learning into Practise: Using bespoke business simulations that are designed to replicate your work placed experiences, we give you the opportunity to live out scenarios and embed the learning in a safe and confidential environment Plan Your Work and Work Your Plan: Every member of the group commits to deliver on quarterly strategic priorities and is held accountable by the rest of the group’s members.

“Growth Springboard is a fantastic continuation on from Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses course – hugely beneficial in building stronger relationships post course and providing a structured, positive, motivational environment. One of the key benefits has been having the time to review and implement the myriad of good ideas from the course on an ongoing basis in a realistic timeframe.””

Lily’s highly-interactive training challenges all participants to grow. Developing leadership strength doesn’t get better than this."

Peter Satchell

“The Leadership course has had a profound impact on my professional growth. It has given me the confidence to lead with clarity, voice my ideas effectively, and support others in doing the same. Above all, it’s taught me that leadership is as much about listening and empowering as it is about decision making.”

Sarah Willis

“Following the completion of the brilliant GS10KSB Programme which Lily delivered the leadership elements of a handful of business owners wanted to continue our development and hold ourselves accountable to ensure we delivered the plans we’d put in place.”
