We are offering a limited number of businesses the opportunity to join our Business Challenge Networks.

These have been established in response to strong interest from business owners seeking a program enabling them to move toward a bigger future by developing their businesses, with their peers, in a confidential environment.

Ironically small business owners have the opportunity to realise many kinds of freedoms that are denied to many.

• The freedom to work when and with whom you want
• The freedom to create the business and working environment that best suites you and your style
• The freedom to determine how much value you create and the rewards that follow
• The freedom to create the lifestyle and quality of life you want.

The obstacles stopping this from happening are more imagined than real.

• Are you chained to your business, unhappy that you have no life outside of your work?
• Fearful of the responsibilities that your business, staff, family clients impose on you and the pressure you put yourself under to maintain lifestyle and social status.
• Is the "big" deal or sale the only thing that will free you from all of this?
• Some people just accept this as their reality and hope that the problems will go away.
• The truth is that without a plan, the tools and skills to implement the plan that change is highly unlikely.

What the Challenge Program Does

• Gets you focused on what matters most for your energy creativity and enjoyment and provides you with the tools and strategies to do more of what motivates you
• Shows you how to go from a "rugged Aussie individual" to benefiting from the stimulating team work that encourages and supports you to focus only on what you want and what you do best.

What Topics are going to be covered?

These topics and brief descriptions are not in any particular order and their detail is tailored to participants.

• Waste Reduction -
  Most businesses are "wasting " the value of around 30% of their operating expenses. What's that worth in $$ terms and what's the implication for your business?
• Business Models
  Many businesses operate on a model that has been around for 20 or more years. Things have changed, is your business model holding you back?
• Customer Pathways
  You want people to buy ... they do that ... but what's next?
• Team Development
  Do your staff work as a team or a groups of individuals?
• Business Improvement
  A business is merely a process ... a successful business is a great process. Business improvement is about moving from ordinary to great.
• Leadership
  As a business owner and manager ... you are a leader. Aren't you?
• Competitive Advantage
  Your business is unique and you need to articulate that to your clients and customers.
• Marketing and communicating
  What is said and done attracts the business you are seeking. What are you saying and doing?
• Value vs Price
  Communicating and delivering value in a cost conscious market.
• Internet Communication
  Why ignoring the concept of 3 is the demise of much web and electronic communication.
• Emotional Intelligence
  You are intelligent ... but are you emotionally intelligent?

Obviously there will be lots more happening than just these things and as the saying goes "you get out of a process what you put in. "
