STRATEGIC PLANNING FOR GROWTH

Course overview

Business success is not an accident, it is planned – yet, very few construction companies regularly practice any type of strategic planning. Strategic planning will transform your business. Imagine being able to make better than average profits, expand your capacity, ensure success and build a healthier company. This course was designed to do just that. It isn’t a miracle cure, it’s a program that teaches the fundamentals of strategic planning to construction professionals.

The major issue facing contractors today is the forecasted labour shortage by 2030. This course identifies some methods to resolve this issue in your company and the construction industry as a whole.

Designed exclusively for contractors, it is based on a hypothetical, privately-owned company whose three principal shareholders have grown their business into one of the foremost mechanical contractors in the province. With annual revenues of $25M, the shareholders recognize that operations and profits are stable and feel that now is a prime time to grow the company to a new level.

This Gold Seal accredited course, presented online in 2-half-day sessions, focuses on enhancing strengths and opportunities and mitigating weaknesses and threats to your company. By carefully working through all the necessary segments, we will create comprehensive Strategic, Financial and Business plans.

Plus, your comprehensive course manual filled with the methods and strategies you need for your business, will serve as your reference guide.

Every manager who contributes to your company’s success and growth will benefit from this course: owners, department and division managers, project managers and coordinators, field supervisors, estimators, administrators, senior accountants, controllers and Gold Seal candidates. They should be prepared for an in-depth, analytic review of your company and will be pleased with the detailed strategies and plans that result. In the past three years, almost 200 construction personnel have benefited from this course.
