This course will challenge how you think about growing your business, giving you the necessary tools to help you plan and execute your next level of growth

Not-news-flash: Workplace inequality is still a major issue. Even women who work for themselves face the reality of economic disparity every day – only 2 per cent of global venture capital is awarded to female-led businesses. It's hard to start a business, and even harder to make it grow, especially given the unique challenges faced by female entrepreneurs, such as the relative lack of access to mentors, training and contacts often available to men.

Led by successful entrepreneur Griselda K Togobo, this course offers a supportive environment for female entrepreneurs and owner-managers to learn how to take their business to the next level, without risking potentially disastrous financial stresses. Through a mixture of classroom tuition, practical interactive group sessions and in-depth discussions, this course provides solid, real-world advice on strategy, and a nurturing environment in which to discuss ideas and challenges with like-minded peers facing the same issues.

Course description

  • The myths about growing your business

  • Effectively managing the risks of growth
  • Examples of growth challenges, solutions and action plans that work in the real world
  • Life lessons: how female business owners faced their growth challenges and succeeded
