Impact Business Growth and Leadership Programme

Mindmap on the wall during a Business Strategy Day in Staffordshire

A six-month business growth and leadership programme to lead your business to more profit, more productivity and less stress

Running a business right now can be exhausting and overwhelming.

You may be fortunate enough to have plenty of work coming your way, but you feel like you’re always playing catch-up – never seeming to get on top of everything or find the time to work ON your own business.

On one hand, business is going well and you’re earning an income but, you’re also feeling burnt out and left wondering if there is an easier way to do this ‘running a business’ thing.

You’re ambitious and want to grow your business to its full potential, but there is always so much to do – where do you start?

From working with dozens of business owners in the last 10 years, either on my one to one programmes or one of my group programmes, I see the same challenges, struggles and headaches coming up time and time again.

  • You’re fire-fighting each day, reacting to everything that comes your way and never having the time to work on the important stuff to move your business forward
  • You’ve become a bottleneck in your own business, where pretty much anything and everything has to be run past you before a decision can be made
  • You keep getting flashes of inspiration and brilliant ideas, but never seem able to progress and implement them
  • You’re unsure whether you need to grow your team and hire more people, or develop your existing team – if only they could just get on with the job and not keep pestering you!

 

You’re ready to make a bigger impact, but how exactly?

The key to growing your business isn’t working harder; it’s working smarter, and I’m going to show you exactly how you can do it.

Impact is a six-month programme for business owners and leaders, guiding you step by step to create more impact in your business.

Why Impact Business Growth And Leadership Programme works

  • Structure

    I will personally guide you through a proven framework to take you from where you are now to where you want to be. Over the course of the six months you will learn exactly what it takes to build a successful business, with all the tools and exercises necessary, so that implementation is easy.

  • Support

    Expert advice and coaching from me, along with the support of a small group of your peers, will help you to feel that you are not alone on this journey and that anything is possible. The power and energy that comes from being part of a group such as this is immense.

  • Stretch

    Expect to be challenged and have your thinking expanded about what you can achieve in your business and how you can do it, as you step up to make a bigger impact.

  • Accountability

    The ‘magic’ ingredient that can propel you forward like never before! Your big plans will be broken down into manageable eight week planning cycles that are achievable for you, and which you will report back on each week through a simple exercise.

Are you ready?

This is a high impact programme, over six months of focus, action and implementation which will keep you engaged and moving forward.

Starting in October 2021, a maximum of 5 successful business owners will be joining me in this 6-month programme, to take their business to the next level.

What clients have said

Staffordshire business coach Alison Bradford

I know what makes a business work – and believe me, there’s a lot more to it than working really hard and putting in lots of hours.

I’m Alison Bradford, a professional business coach based in Stone, Staffordshire.

For the past 10 years I’ve been working with ambitious business owners to get them clear on what they need to be doing to grow their business and make more profit, but without putting in more and more time.

If there’s one thing that really frustrates me, it’s seeing business owners hold themselves back through a lack of clarity, confidence and awareness of what they should be doing, and what they need to stop doing!

I’ve put together this six month Impact programme to not only give you practical strategies to implement in your business, but also to develop your most important asset, you! Understanding yourself and how you can lead your business to success by tapping into your own greatness is key to achieving the results you desire, without it feeling like too much hard work.

From my previous corporate work, I was selected for the prestigious Global Leadership programme in Vodafone, along with many other development courses and leading high-performing teams, teaching me lots about leadership and business. I love sharing this knowledge with business owners and leaders, and have been recognised by Enterprise Nation as a top 5 Leadership & Management UK business advisor.

This programme builds on the success of previous programmes I’ve run, to bring out the leader in you, as the driving force to achieve success in your business though integrity, courage and action.

How the Impact Business Growth And Leadership Programme works

Let me take you through how it works, and what’s involved over the six months, and you can see whether you want to be considered to be a part of this.

There’s a clear structure to take you through the programme, as you roll up your sleeves to get stuff done, and move from feeling overwhelmed to feeling back in control.

An initial 90-minute strategy session at the start of your journey, to help get you crystal clear on what you want to get from the Impact programme, get under the skin of where you are now, and identify some quick wins for you to implement straight away.

 

Four Group Days around the board table

These are the cornerstone of the programme, where we’ll spend four days together as a group, split across the six months and held in Staffordshire.

The next dates are:

  • 6th October 2021
  • 1st December 2021
  • 26th January 2022
  • 23rd March 2022

These are high impact days focused ON your business and we’ll be getting stuff done in these sessions, not just learning the theory!

The following eight Impact Modules will be covered across the four days, and each day will end with time to work on your six month plan, which will then be broken down into an eight week plan.

  • Purpose
  • Leadership
  • Simplify & Streamline
  • High Performing Teams
  • Know Your Customers
  • Grow Your Profit
  • Mindset
  • Creating the Impossible

 

Four Group Accountability & Mastermind Calls

To keep you on track as you continue to implement what you learn in the group days and hold you accountable, and a safe space to bring up any challenges to work through and get feedback on.

 

Impact Accountability Report

A weekly report for you to update on your progress, in a super simple format, enabling you to learn from the week gone and plan for the week ahead.

 

Private Facebook Group

A place where you can get access to myself and the rest of the group between our sessions, for support, motivation and asking questions.

 

Workbooks for Each Module and Templates

For you to make your own notes and refer to time and time again, after the programme has finished.

The modules in detail

The following eight Impact Modules will be covered across the four days, and each day will end with time to work on your six-month plan, which will then be broken down into an eight-week plan.

Module 1: Purpose

Stepping back and reconnecting with who you are and what you are here to achieve. You’ll use some profiling tools to understand your own personality and strength areas, understanding your ‘why’ and setting out your big vision

Module 2: Leadership

Understanding what type of leader you are and how to capitalise on this to motivate your team and drive your business forward. Why we all have leadership qualities and how to bring them to the front whilst still being you.

Module 3: Simplify & Streamline

Getting under the skin of what working smarter, not harder, actually means and practical strategies and tools you can use in your business straight away to become more efficient and more effective.

Module 4: High Performing Teams

How to find the right people for your team, understanding your existing team and get more out of them, plus how to have those sometimes necessary difficult conversations.

Module 5: Know Your Customers

Using tools to understand who they are, how to market effectively to them, and mapping your customer journey and identifying where you need to improve your customer experience.

Module 6: Grow Your Profit

Designing your business model to achieve your profit targets, how to identify your ‘cash cows’ and setting up the measures you need to effectively and easily manage your profit

Module 7: Mindset

The often overlooked yet most powerful tool you have, we’ll be looking at how to get it working for you, and give you a toolkit to use beyond this programme to banish imposter syndrome and limiting beliefs, and to tap into the best version of you.

Module 8: Creating the Impossible

What if anything was possible for you and your business? Creating your big vision for the next five years then working out a plan to achieve it.
