For executive teams of midsized companies, leading a steadily growing or rapidly expanding business can be exhilarating –that is, until demands unique to running midsized companies envelope them (either suddenly or slowly over time) and put a strain on financials, damage operations, and grind growth to a halt. Midsized companies are particularly susceptible to misdiagnosed or hard-to-detect pitfalls that drain momentum, sap energy and resources, and can even put a firm out of business.
In each webinar, Rob illuminates the pivotal experiences of his guest speakers; and attendees are invited to participate in a live Q&A.
What you will learn:
- How to identify the 7 Silent Growth Killers of midsized companies that are hidden in plain sight
- How Silent Growth Killers drain momentum and energy, stop growth, and sometimes put a firm out of business
- Why midsized companies are particularly susceptible to the 7 Silent Growth Killers, while start-ups and mega-large companies are often immune
- How to ward off disaster, turn a lagging business around, or recover from Silent Growth Killers, after the damage has been done
- How leaders of midsized companies can proactively avoid the 7 Silent Growth Killers and strengthen the essential characteristics that drive Mighty Midsized Companies
