Co-Innovate & NatWest - Managing Unexpected Growth

Co-Innovate & NatWest - Managing Unexpected Growth

Managing Unexpected Growth

There’s no limiting the wide range of impacts that businesses have been faced with in the wake of COVID-19. One example may be an unexpected increase in growth that has stretched your business resources and capacity. Effectively managing this growth is key to maintaining a building on the new ground you have gained, rather than seeing it return to pre-COVID levels.

During this webinar we will consider:

  • How to effectively assess business growth over the short, medium and long term.
  • How create a clear, actionable series of goals to meet new demands and allow them to become business as usual
  • How to incorporate unexpected growth into your wider business strategy

When is the event?

Tuesday 24th May from 10:00am -11:30am

Who is this event for?

This is for you if you are based in Greater London, are planning on scaling up a new business, or growing an existing company. You might work in the technology, design, sciences or service industries and you are ambitious to succeed.
