MBAe Masterclass: Managing the complex role of leading a start-up

#BPUinsights

Managing a start-up or small business and not sure how to effectively allocate your time? About to begin work on a start-up?

Effective start-up management is a complex skill to master - with more tasks to get done, than time available, prioritisation and focus is critical. Having a robust understanding of the most critical roles for you, the founder and/or CEO, to play, and how these roles evolve as your business grows, are essential ingredients of many successful businesses (as well as being key characteristics of successful entrepreneurs!).
Through this masterclass, we will cover a detailed introduction to the following topics:

The four critical roles of the founder/CEO
Clearing the path to give your team freedom to focus
Managing to internal and external audiences
Building your own support and guidance network

We’ll draw on real, live examples and practical exercises to help you apply the theory to your own business or situation. Please come prepared to discuss and think through the 2-3 most critical questions you have, relative to your own situation.
