Key Executive Program

The Key Executive Program is designed to fully align EOers with their leadership team. The Program offers tools and support to master business best practices via a monthly Accountability Group and quarterly Scaling Up workshops.

What You Need to Know

The Key Executive Program is designed to empower and align EOers with their leadership team and provide the tools and support to rapidly scale.
Each participant is eligible to attend Scaling Up Workshops on Cash, Strategy, People and Execution run by a trained facilitator.
There are three program levels available:
- Executive Program (Learn) – where your staff members access the Scaling Up learning curriculum to ensure they are on the same page as you.
- Key Executive Program (Coach) – where executives are placed in an Accountability Group to support, mentor and hold them accountable to their 12-month action plan.
- Key Executive Program (Forum) – where executives are placed in a forum and appoint a moderator to facilitate and run the meetings.

“I found the Key Executive Program to be particularly useful, in the sense that I have been able to transition out of being the Owner / CEO, to be able to appoint Mita as CEO.”

– Jeff Carruthers, EO Sydney Member

Scaling Up Workshops

CASH

Accelerate cash flow to fuel your growth

The first law of entrepreneurial gravity is “Growth sucks cash.” We encourage companies to examine their cash acceleration strategies. This measures the time between spending a dollar (on marketing, design, rent, wages, etc.) and earning that dollar back throughout the company.

STRATEGY

Create sustainable top line growth

The keys to sustainable top-line growth are: knowing your core customer, developing a clear brand promise, and developing your BHAG® (Big Hairy Audacious Goal).

PEOPLE

Become a magnet for A-players who are dedicated to results

Growth companies’ most difficult decisions involve getting the right people in the right seats. Is everyone in your company aligned, pulling their weight, and contributing as they should?

EXECUTION

Develop a strategic advantage over your competitors

One common challenge that quietly sneaks up on successful growth companies is the subtle transition from excellent, precise execution to passivity, complacency, and eventually poor execution disciplines. Tightening up your execution habits can dramatically improve your gross margins and profitability while reducing the time it takes to get work done.
