Bridging the Gap.
How do you bridge the gap between your success at launching your business and developing it into a successful company for which you need a completely different set of business skills?
Recently more than 800 of the regions businesses visited the East of England Development Agency business conference held at Duxford
A staggering two thirds of region's SMEs expect to grow by 25% - source- www.EEDA.org.uk which prompts the question how are they going to do it?
Innovations, acquisition, restructure? Whatever the strategy one certainty is that the quest for knowledge continues unabated as attendance at the show testified.
Commenting Michael Carr of Carr Management Consultants said -
“The internet has provided a rich encyclopedia from which a resourceful company owner can glean knowledge on everything from strategy to marketing to the latest set of competitor accounts but this is still insufficient if they don’t know how it all fits together and how they bridge the gap between knowledge and implementation”
Carr Consultants have recently launched their Business Development Programme “Partners in Success” to address such an issue.
“A successful business is typically based around the technical capability of the founder and that innate knowledge is the recipe for success. Where the problems come in is when the business is exposed to competitive pressure either at a product, service or economic level; the skills needed to overcome those obstacles are no longer technical but commercial.
We have launched this programme to enable SME’s to build a solid foundation into their business, to give them the tools and most importantly the understanding of how to build a successful company”
The programme is modular and individually tailored, delivered on site over twelve months and covers Finance, Sales & Marketing and Operational effectiveness.
This is a very practical “shirt sleeves rolled up” programme where Carr Consultants will work alongside the Management Team advising and guiding along the way; quarterly visits by a dedicated and experienced consultant ensure that the plans stay on track – As Carr said “We Bridge the Gap between knowledge and success”
