Mighty Midsized Companies: How Leaders Overcome 7 Silent Growth Killers

This Make it Mighty! presentation will be tailored to the needs of this global association of 33 midsized paint manufacturers.  For an executive team, the excitement of leading a steadily or rapidly growing midsized firm can be exhilarating – that is, until growth grinds down to a halt. In this presentation, Robert Sher explores based on his years of research on more than 100 companies how seven silent growth killers have derailed midsized firms. He then shows how executives can overcome or avoid them altogether.

Silent growth killers are hard-to-detect pitfalls that drain momentum and energy, stop growth and sometimes put a firm out of business. The impact of the growth killers is unique to midsized companies. Small, venture-funded companies don’t typically suffer from them, and while they do strike big companies, they typically have the financial and managerial strength to survive them.

Illustrating the seven silent growth killers through real examples, Robert explains how CEOs and other leaders can protect their companies from them or avoid them altogether.

What you will learn:

• Why the seven silent growth killers are much bigger risks for midsized companies
• How to identify the growth killers early
• Ways to survive them with tried-and-true methods
• How to steer clear of the killers altogether
