Venue:
Victoria Building Board Room
Trainer:
David Skipsey, Change Mentors
Updating
your business plan is a vital part of keeping your business on track for
growth, & ensuring that your company keeps its focus. The business plan
defines where you think your company is going & the routes that it will
take to achieve success – keeping it under revision means that you can focus on
these important elements.
Most
of your time running a business is spent on the small stuff – the endless day
to day detail that any manager of a small company is inevitably a party to,
this workshop will help you look again at the high level picture that defines
your business & identify any areas that may need some rework.
Key
elements we will look at:
<![if !supportLists]>

your achievements

<![endif]> updating
your SWOT analysis
<![if !supportLists]>
