In this workshop you will: 

• Learn the “Triple Niche,” a simple concept from the Kellogg Executive MBA Program designed to help focus your business. Understand why business focus is more important than ever in a changing world.
• Hear about the Stages of Growth and how strategies from managing finances to personnel change at each stage. A key concept is staying balanced between growth—building revenues—and infrastructure to support quality execution of work.
• Learn why hiring “The Smartest Guy in the Room” is rarely the best approach to hiring employees and consultants.
• Learn how to delegate more carefully, avoiding pitfalls such as over-delegating and not delegating enough.
• Hear about lessons in “keeping up” and adapting to a rapidly changing business environment where old rules no longer apply.
• Hear about “Pebbles in the Shoe,” a framework designed to identify obstacles preventing your company and its leaders from growing and addressing them.
