SUMMARY:The Importance Of A 90-Day Plan
DESCRIPTION:Growth Club Workshop – 90 Day Planning Workshop\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nNatWest are pleased to working in partnership with ActionCoach to deliver this workshop. \nIt’s easy to get caught up in the day-to-day running of your business. Finding time to plan and to reflect can be extremely difficult. \nIn this engaging online workshop we want to help you step away from working in the business to working on the business. It aims to equip you with tools\, actions and strategies to better prepare for the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. \nWhy you need a 90-day plan \nThe unprecedented times we’re in mean it’s vital that all business owners have a firm plan and clear actions for the next 90 days. That plan may still need to adapt and change but having it in place is going to make a fundamental difference to how you continue to drive your business. \nWe’ve collaborated with ActionCoach to deliver this session to give you: \n• energy\, vision and focus for the next 90 days in your business \n• practical business growth strategies you can implement right away \n• a real plan to operate your business for the next quarter \n• a completed workbook\, with week by week tasks and strategies \n• skills and tools to get more done in your business. \nBy the end of the workshop\, you’ll have a clear picture of where your business will be after 90 days as well as a plan to get you there. \nYou’ll also have the opportunity to connect with other businesses in your area\, facing the same opportunities and uncertainties\, and be guided by the experienced ActionCoach team. \nThe Zoom link will be released to the attendees via their e-mail address prior to the start of the workshop.

These really are great modules that most businesses would benefit from under the current economic climate. \nBusiness Builder events are designed to support and challenge users to develop the right foundations for their business; whether that’s how to write a great pitch\, how to define their Business Model or navigate through a changing environment. \nEach 60-minute event is tailored to meet a specific business need\, offering attendees an opportunity to upskill in the company of other like-minded business owners\, share experiences\, and work through individual and group exercises to implement the learning into their own business. \nThese workshops run every Tuesday for 10 weeks starting on Tuesday 30th March 2021 from 09:30am – 10:30am.  \nTickets can now be secured through Eventbrite for all workshops. It is recommended that attendees should try to attend the whole series of workshops to get maximum benefit. \nThe workshops will take place via Zoom and the code / password for this will be released to attendees prior to the start by NatWest Business. \nALL WORKSHOPS ARE FREE TO ATTEND \nWe look forward to ‘seeing’ you there.
