Benefits for you and your business

This intensive six-month course is designed to be light on your time away from the business but heavy on the benefits and potential. Packed with insights from businesses who have been where you are now, you’ll also enjoy practical learning and exploration of the specific productivity hurdles you are facing.

• Making the best of your leadership capabilities and where and how to improve

• Developing a clear plan on how to sharpen your competitive edge

• Creating and leading a high-performance culture

Programme structure

We know this approach works, but you’ll need to give it your all. The best results will come if you dig deep into your experience, share openly with your peers, are prepared to be challenged and challenge others and have the drive to implement what you’ve learned following the course.

Eligibility and how to apply

Who is the programme for?

High Performance is exclusively for the senior management of businesses with between 10 and 50 employees.  Participants must have a strong drive to transform the performance of their business and be prepared to dig deep and fully participate in this short yet challenging programme.  Participants must, therefore, be prepared to be pushed and constructively challenged by their peers and to push and offer constructive challenge in return – this is central to the High Performance methodology.

What our delegates say

 “A thought-provoking programme.” D-Line Europe

“Talking to other business owners who were honest and open about their challenges and their experiences was valuable. The programme really enabled you to think in broader terms about your business and not just focus on the day to day stuff.” I-Evo

“Speaking to other business owners really empowered me. Running your own business everything can get magnified sometimes and you think you are the only company that are experiencing an issue or a silly mistake. It’s good to realise the struggles you are facing are not unique.” TSG Marine

“The four workshops were insightful and have added to the way Blu Sky works. They have helped us deliver our five year vision for business growth.” Blu Sky
