Most businesses would fall apart without the owner holding it all together. The ADAPT Framework transforms your business to be less reliant on you, giving you the time to work on what matters.
The majority of SME owners have worked tirelessly to build a successful business, but despite all their progress they are still stuck in the day-to-day grind. The problem is – they have to be. Otherwise the organisation would fall apart …
What if there was a way for you to step outside of that day-to-day grind? Build a business that grows on its own? That consciously nurtures its culture and people? A business that just works so that you can focus on the bigger picture and the elements of your business that you are genuinely passionate about.
While it may seem that your business is reliant on you, it does not need to be. In fact, to continue to grow long term, it simply can’t be. We have spent years working with business owners to help them achieve that reality using the ADAPT Framework.
The ADAPT Framework breaks down the four major functions of your business and embeds the leadership, culture, systems and habits for it to run on its own. Without you. It is ideal for owners looking to achieve growth and succession for their business and live the life they have always envisioned.
How?
The ADAPT Framework builds capability in the four key zones of your business: Healthy Culture, Organisation Design, Economic Engine and Financial Security. These four zones are the ones business owners desperately need to have running on their own in order to be able to step outside of the grind and into areas that matter most.
The ADAPT Foundations program brings the ADAPT Framework to life in your business. It is an 18-month program that builds the foundations in leadership, culture, systems and habits that business owners need to be able to take some of those hats off and start achieving their vision for the future.
The ADAPT Foundations program has a proven process that builds capability across the four biggest zones of your business. We work closely with you to develop your leadership team, build your resilient business strategy, engage your people and then build the cadence to keep these changes alive and your business thriving.
In the ADAPT Foundations program, you will work closely with a dedicated and experienced coach that brings the ADAPT Framework to life in your business. You coach becomes your trusted guide and a member of your team, remaining by your side for the entire journey and beyond to support you to achieve your business vision.
