The Commercial Leadership
Laboratory
A One-Day Reflection Session for Owners, Directors and Senior Leaders
A short, sharp reset for business leaders and/or leadership teams to come up for air, get clarity of commercial, customer and personal perspectives, reset profit and value expectations and agree what needs to change to create fresh momentum.
One day. Three perspectives. Zero horseshit.
Most Business Leaders Don’t Have Strategic Problems. They Have Clarity And Execution Problems.
- It's busy without a sense the dial is moving
- How things should be done and how they are done have drifted apart
- Exciting new ideas die quietly between inception and execution
- What their company stands for and how it creates value has become lost
This doesn’t make you bad leaders. You are human after all, and prone to clinging to existing assumptions and beliefs while the world moves on.
The Leaders lab gives you the chance to explore, challenge and adjust your perspectives, so you can start delivering on the full potential in your company. We do it by taking three perspectives…
Satellite
What does responsible creation of value look like for your customers, your bottom line and you as an individual.
Helicopter
What in your company is creating lift or drag? How are you organised to meet customer expectations, achieve optimal profits, and deliver a positive employee experience?
Ground
Who do you and your leadership team need to become so that you unlock full commercial and personal potential?
You (and Your Team) leave with
That’s true at every altitude — not just the personal one
You (and Your Team) leave with
- Clarity of what responsible value creation looks like for you
- A ‘map of the mess’ revealing where your organisation is creating lift or drag.
- The confidence and commitment to make the tough calls and move forward in interesting and useful ways.
- Specific actions to take as soon as you're back in the workplace.
Before, During and After
Before
Key concepts will be shared through a short video before the session so we can hit the ground running.
The Laboratory
A full day in an inspiring small group environment; a working room, not a lecture theatre.
Monthly Q&A
Six monthly Q/A sessions to keep you focused, resolve challenges and keep the heat in the stove.
30-Minute Implementation Call
A private session with Dave, your Joker card for when you find yourself stuck.
Who This Is For
- You own, run or are a leader in a small or medium sized business.
- You want clarity and commitment, not another stack of ideas to add to the pile.
- You suspect the gap is somewhere between what you offer, how you're organised, and how you lead, but you've never considered all three at once.
- You are willing to understand and resolve what is getting in the way of achieving your fullest potential.
This Is Not A Team Build
But you will feel more aligned.
This Is Not A Training Session
But you will learn about yourself.
This Is Not A Workshop
But you’ll leave with clear actions.
This Is Not A Sales Pitch
This session IS the work
