SUMMARY:Business Training - What's Holding Your Business Back? A Business Diagnostic Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Heavy-weight boxer Mike Tyson once said\, "everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth." Business can feel a bit like that sometimes.\n\n\n\nRising costs\, tighter margins\, staffing challenges\, slower sales\, and constant pressure can quickly expose the cracks\, blind spots\, and competing priorities inside a business. This interactive workshop is designed to help business owners step back and stress-test what is really happening in their business.\n\n\n\nThrough real business examples and open discussion\, Mike Green will challenge participants to uncover the issues\, assumptions\, and competing priorities that may be limiting performance and preventing progress.\n\n\n\nThis is not a long-term business development programme or a detailed growth planning session. It is a focused diagnostic workshop designed to challenge assumptions\, create clarity\, and help business owners cut through the noise and focus on what matters most.\n\n \n\nChatham House Rules apply throughout the workshop to encourage open and confidential discussion around real business challenges and experiences. Suitable for business owners wanting honest discussion\, practical insight\, and greater clarity around the issues currently impacting their business.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPRESENTER\n\nMike Green\, Business Improvement Specialist. Maximus Business Solutions \n\nFor the last 25 years\, Mike Green has helped more than 300 business owners from almost every sector create enduring business success by implementing practical 'in the trenches' strategies that deliver real results. During this time\, Mike has served on two Not-for-Profit boards\, been a board member of the Tauranga Chamber of Commerce\, a NZ Business Mentor\, worked as part of three Business Consulting firms\, completed the Institute of Directors Company Director program\, and has owned two businesses. Mike has also worked via an accounting firm with larger companies on complete business and ownership restructuring to allow investment\, preparation for sale\, growth\, and development of strategies for business resilience\, especially in tough times.\n\n\n\nHe has a particular passion of working directly with the owners of SME businesses as the results are often quick and easy to implement. He uses a straight-forward and well proven process to remove the roadblocks to success. Mike has a charismatic leadership style that creates challenge and high engagement\, all anchored in the gritty accountability of getting the work done while still having some fun.\n\n\n\n\n\nView our terms and conditions here. \n\n\n\nFor enquiries or to cancel your registration email events@waikatochamber.co.nz.
