Mastering the Dynamics of Strategic Growth

Our experts are certified in the Stages of Growth model and will address important aspects of leading growth to include:

  • Defining in advance the impacts of growth; and

  • Focusing on the right things at the right time.

This executive development process introduces a proven business model, a systematic framework to understand growth. It enables CEOs and their teams to clearly identify and understand each of the stages of growth, and the unique definitive parameters of each stage. It introduces the language of growth. The language builds concepts of understanding which – combined with enlightened leadership – result in a transformation of the culture through the development of a growth mindset.

Where Phase I of CEO Development focuses on the CEO as an individual, and Phase II begins to engage the leadership team – both important components of organizational development – Phase III is total engagement of the CEO and leadership team in developing the organization, team sport at its best. 

Direct benefits for the leadership team of the Phase III experience are:

  • Increased confidence;

  • Reduced stress;

  • Sharpened focus and increased clarity; and

  • Development of a strategic roadmap.

This methodology enables a CEO and leadership team:

  • To confidently chart a course for their current growth stage; 

  • To be aware of the factors which define the next stage of growth; and

  • To be certain that they do not miss key steps along the way.

When a company has mastered the dynamics of strategic growth, they are riding the growth curve, walking the optimal path between chaos and equilibrium.

This approach to understanding business growth is tied to the rather simple premise that “Your people are your business.” Extensive research has found that the phenomena of business growth are closely linked to the number of employees in the enterprise. Companies or business units of five hundred or less employees experience a rather predictable series of challenges as they grow. To take a company to 500 employees requires moving through seven stages of growth.
