Having peers who hold you accountable for your decisions and actions is the most productive way to create change.

Peer-to-Peer Mastermind Advisory Boards are the ideal place where SME Owner-CEO’s can turn to someone who understands the challenges they are facing, can be trusted to give an unbiased perspective which in turn could save valuable resources. Remember that the goal of starting most companies is to make and increase sales, profitability and therefore market value and success. However, this does not usually happen right away.

Challenges and uncertainty are always part of long-term scaling up plans and sometimes you just don’t know what you don’t know. Maybe it’s all in your head and needs to be put on paper. Maybe you do not know another, or even the best, way to tackle challenges. You may have some self-doubt. You may lack some tools and techniques for the tasks you are facing.

You may even have been looking and listening out for people like you (but not necessarily a competitor!) who you could ask for advice and who you in turn could help.

Your Advisory Board is underpinned by 4 key tenets:

Unique Mastermind Process

  • Proven and powerful way of solving business challenges
  • Access to collective brain-power and knowledge
  • Advisors bring unique perspectives and propose solutions
  • Leverage – None of us is smarter than all of us

50+ FastGrowth™ Projects

  • Develop strategic leadership, profitable products and sales
  • Goals and direction, team engagement, efficient operations
  • Guidance to critically form strategic conclusions
  • Challenge to draw up actionable steps to move you forward

Accountability and support

  • You are an accountability partner for others on the board
  • Your Board gives you a powerful support network
  • You remain committed to follow through with your goals

Two Exclusive membership levels

  • Max of 20 peers from non-competing sectors.
  • Like minded go-getting go-giving entrepreneurs
  • Access innovative solutions from different sectors
What does it take to be a member of the board?

Membership of the board is by application only. The Alpha Group brings together up to 20 of SME Owners. As stewards of your board we look for ambitious members who have the following qualities:

  • Have the right mindset to grow and help others grow with them.
  • Are willing to share and receive new ideas that can change their thinking and promote action taking.
  • Are committed to the time required for strategic work.
  • Understand the importance of investing in themselves and their continued learning.
  • Work to the highest standards and will hold their peers accountable.
  • Are fun to be around and yet are serious about implementing transformational changes to move their business to the next level.

Click on the link above to register your interest and we will organise a time to get to know each other over a coffee and discuss your next steps.

What is a board meeting like?

The monthly in person Boards run for about 6 hours with a tightly-focused agenda. Each meeting includes a FastGrowth™ Project and several mastermind sessions which are facilitated by the Regional Director. On-line Boards are more flexible and may meet weekly for 1.5 hours to cater for time-poor executives.

The Projects focus on the critical aspects of a business which include Goals + Strategy, Operations + Efficiencies, Leadership + People and Development of profitable customers and products. With over 50 Projects in the arsenal, members are guided to critically think about these areas of their business in order to form strategic conclusions about their situation and draw up actionable next steps to move forward.

The Board Meeting also includes three powerful mastermind sessions. The mastermind is a process to help an individual member present a topic concerning their business, gain clarity and additional perspectives before taking a decision that could cost them valuable resources.

Members also have an access to the GOLD™ coaching program, for a separate fee. It is designed for one-on-one coaching for the SME Owner-CEO and dovetails seamlessly into the Board membership.

Begin your adventure today! But be warned: Participating in the Alpha Group is not for the faint hearted.

Have you ever felt any of these common challenges?

  • You are too full of ideas and demands to get all your plans out of your head and onto paper
  • You realise you might just be the biggest bottleneck to growing your business
  • You know you should be working more “ON” your business and not “IN” it
  • You are considering what to next with your business

YOUR BUSINESS LEADERSHIP

Do Masterminds work?

Napoleon Hill first talked about Masterminds over 100 years ago and the rest, as they say, is history. Business leaders from Henry Ford all the way to Steve Jobs and many of the most successful entrepreneurs in the country have used Masterminds. The power of the Mastermind is tapping in to the experience of your peers. So yes, they do work, but what does that really give you?

It’s knowing you’re no longer alone to start with. It’s collaborating openly and candidly with your fellow peers to open up a world of possibilities and focus for your business. You will be able to take a load off your shoulders, learn new skills and form new connections in your business and personal networks. Ultimately you will end up thinking bigger as you stretch beyond your boundaries when engaging with these amazing people doing amazing things.

You cannot help but feel that you have found your tribe of equals that really understand you and your challenges!
