In The Lead

Sales are pouring in

You are regularly winning new contracts

You are established, recognised and respected

You are having to cope with growth

It’s very exciting

But…

Margins are eroding

Your staff may not be as effective as they could be

Clients are complaining

Your work / life balance is suffering

You don’t have enough thinking time

Everything in your business is sales led. However at some point the operation starts to creak as the resources deployed in the back offices are insufficient to satisfy the continual sales stream. Sales people may be making promises that the operational people can’t deliver, and time and quality commitments are suffering. Stresses are apparent as are customer complaints. Planning and providing are pushed aside as the management are too busy fire-fighting. If left unchecked your business is unlikely to grow profitably and the competition will overtake you.

It is vital to the continued growth and success of your business that you develop the appropriate management processes and leadership skills to take your business forward as well as introducing the necessary business processes. You are likely to find the change to following procedures and policies hard to adjust to.

Now your business is really motoring.

How can we help you balance sales and delivery to get a regular return for all your hard work?

You’re already a successful business person and will know from your own experience what are your strengths and what are the obstacles and frustrations that stand in your way. There is no one-size-fits-all solution at this time.

It’s time for some hard decisions about how you put in place systems and structures to make this business manageable over the long term so we start with a half day coaching consultation where you will define what you want to achieve over the next few years, what is happening now and what needs to change and what specific help you need to make this happen.

How do we help?

Using a series of exercises and skillful questioning from our coaches you will clarify your thoughts, challenge your assumptions, and gain confidence in your decisions about what to do next.
Together we look at the skills and abilities of you, your staff and others to make those changes. As a result of this analysis you will develop a plan of action.
Then you can choose from the following range of services to design a bespoke package to increase your own and your team’s capabilities to put this into action: See below:
