Professional Development in 2020
A Program Every Family Business Should Take
Space is Limited for this Opportunity to Develop Your Management and Leadership Skills
Bellrock’s Management Foundations starts on January 21! Their leadership development and management training program provides you with proven knowledge and tools to effectively recruit, motivate, develop, and direct your staff, along with foundational education on business management. Today is your last chance to register and build the habits that will stack the odds in your favour for a successful decade.
The program runs monthly and is paired with customized 1:1 training sessions to ensure the learning sticks. This is the first time that Bellrock is offering their popular program in Victoria and it’s an excellent fit for family businesses.
At the best of times, managing people is challenging. The complexity increases exponentially when you layer in family dynamics. Even those that aren’t genetically linked take on some of the family characteristics. Too often people are promoted to management but without receiving any training or ongoing coaching to ensure success. Time management, expectation setting and delegation, performance management, motivating staff, finance and budgeting, having tough conversations, recruiting and onboarding, etc. are all the areas that managers find they could use more support in.
I hope you view this as a great opportunity and decide to commit to developing your leadership and management skills with experts in the industry and a cohort of family enterprises and small businesses. For those in senior leadership positions or working as advisors, this is a great opportunity for staff/clients that you wish to develop. All are welcome!
Act fast. Last call for registrations!

Grant Funding May Be Available Too!
Grant funding is generally available but there have been restrictions on family businesses. However, family businesses may now be eligible with the right justification, and this is something that Bellrock and their partner, Granted Consulting, can help with. Timing is of the essence! Since grant applications take time, connect with Bellrock to get the process started.
