The Inner Biz Leader(TM) Virtual Business Planning Retreat

Description

Are you a leader or business owner looking to create a plan for the next year? The virtual business planning retreat is geared to support professionals - leaders and business owners - with an opportunity to pause, reflect and focus on developing your vision and a plan for the coming year.

This is not your typical business planning retreat! The focus of the Virtual Business Planning Retreat provides you with an opportunity to create your plan for the next year, as well as deepen awareness of your unique capabilities - your strengths, values and opportunities. We focus on your Inner Biz Leader ™- your own leadership foundations.

The program is divided into several modules. Throughout the program we explore:

• What’s your vision?
• Mapping out a Vision Roadmap(TM) and Activity Timeline for the next year
• Identifying your top 3-5 goals for the next year
• Developing Your Activity Roadmap for the Coming Year
• Creating your One Page Plan
• Who and what do you need to make this happen
• What makes you unique - Your Values
• What makes you unique - Your Strengths
• Your Context - The SWOT - Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats
• Your Unique Ecosystem
• Getting Into Action - Focus, Experimentation, Momentum, Celebration

Throughout each of the sections of the retreat there are structured activities for you to undertake, building a one-page plan for you. Supplemental materials also address topics such as partnering and collaboration, tips for effective delegation and managing interruptions.

This is not your typical business planning retreat! It's geared to focus on YOU as a leader or business owner. These activities will support you in developing your business your business vision and plan for the next year. You will leave with a foundation you can build on as you move forward. We WILL NOT be covering topics such as budgeting or marketing strategy, which you will find in other courses.

You can complete the retreat in the course of one day or over a series of multiple days or weeks.

Each module takes approximately one hour to complete, and includes audio and video components, as well as worksheets you can complete offline.

Without a plan it’s hard to know where you are going, and even harder to know if you’ve gotten there. This program is ideal for your creating your annual business plan and can be revisited quarterly.
