Webinar: Keeping Rocketing Growth From Spiraling Out of Control

Wednesday, May 4, 2016.  10:00am – 11:00am PST.   A Mighty Webinar.

Many founders, entrepreneurs and business executives dream of leading a high-growth company.  Then they get the chance, and as the rocket passes Mach 2, they notice the tiles cracking and falling off the rocket, and the ship starts shaking.  Uh-oh.

Leading a high-growth company into and through midsized is both exciting and difficult; it is full of risk.  This talk, drawn from four of the chapters of the speaker’s book, Mighty Midsized Companies: How Leaders Overcome 7 Silent Growth Killers, explains how to avoid the growth impediments that can bring down these firms in painful, awful spectacles.

Midsized firms can increase headcount incredibly fast. So keeping the leadership team trained, aligned and informed on growth and all its costs is crucial – particularly on how ideas are evaluated and resources allocated to them.

Acquisitions can be a rocket booster, but the leadership team must be prepared to manage them after deals are closed. Lastly, midsized firms run the risk of operational meltdown, where they simply can’t deliver on their promises. Robert explains how to avoid such harrowing scenarios.

What you will learn:

  • Crucial factors in increasing the odds of a successful growth campaign
  • How to keep the entire leadership team on track during times of high growth
  • How to get time on your side to get projects completed on schedule
  • How to pick the right acquisition targets and boost their performance after the deal is closed
  • How to insure that your rocket stays on course, with no lives lost!
