As an advocate of self-development, I took part in a free 12 Month Business Coaching programme around 18 months ago - I found it fascinating and it really helped me to focus on my key business strengths and on where i wanted my business to go!
Created by Deloitte, Birmingham City Council and the Academy of Chief Executives, they are offering a lighter six month version of the scheme to 90 businesses based in Birmingham.
The criteria are:
- Your business must have a Birmingham (B??) postcode
- Your business must have been trading for a minimum of 6 months
- THATS IT!!
Please find full details below but if you fit the above, contact the team NOW -
Take the time to invest in yourself for FREE!! After, you are the heart and soul of your business!!
Are you seeking to grow your business but are not sure how to go about it?
Do you need some help adapting your business offer to the current conditions
in the market?
You could be eligible to receive free business support valued over £5,000.
Starting in March 2010, 90 companies trading for six months or more will have
the opportunity to work with Deloitte and the Academy for Chief Executives
to build customised development plans and receive dedicated coaching and
mentorship for up to 12 months.
The programme is designed for entrepreneurs
and management teams seeking to navigate their companies through the
necessary – and often rewarding – challenges of growth.
If you are seeking to bring your company to the next level or need sustained
guidance on particular business issues, you could stand to gain real
benefits from participating in the Stimulating Demand High Growth Programme
(SDHG).
As part of this free service you are invited to find out more by joining us
at an introductory half day event on either 23 March 2010 or 22 April 2010
at the Deloitte office, 4 Brindleyplace, Birmingham B1 2HZ.
If you would like to attend either of these events or simply wish to find
