200 people benefited from Help to Grow
It’s been over two years since the first cohort of SME (Small and Medium Enterprise) business leaders graduated from the Help to Grow: Management programme at the University and they’ve just celebrated filling their 10th cohort. The numbers tell of a success story for the programme and the businesses that have grown with them.
Help to Grow is a 90% Government funded 12-week programme for SME business decision makers designed to boost their leadership skills and business performance with them developing a bespoke Growth action plan for their business.
The programme is proving a success with thousands of businesses throughout the UK being supported with 200 SME business leaders having taken the programme with the University of Brighton so far. These businesses come from all sectors - ranging from construction to a glamping site and from a mobile cocktail bar to a dental practice.
Catherine Robinson, Dean of the School of Business and Law said
“Aligned to the School of Business and Law’s mission Help to Grow cohorts are delivering on the school’s commitment to shape responsible enterprise for a fairer society by supporting local entrepreneurs with tailored further education and distinct executive coaching. When we speak to our graduates, we hear the huge impact that the Help to Grow programme makes to the sustainable growth of their businesses as well as their own personal development.”
