Build Your Three-Year Plan. Strengthen Your Business.
Enter the New Fiscal Year with a Plan - not Just a Budget.
Success in construction does not happen by chance. It requires a clear direction, realistic goals, disciplined planning, and a practical roadmap for turning strategy into action.
This newly revised program is designed specifically for construction company owners and senior managers who are ready to step back from day-to-day operations and plan where their company is going next.
Through a practical, construction-focused approach, participants will develop a framework for building a Three-Year Strategic Plan, Revenue Growth Plan, and Annual Business Plan.
Using a realistic $25-million mechanical contractor case study, participants will explore how management can respond to growth opportunities, declining margins, cash-flow pressures, employee challenges, increasing competition, and operational complexity while developing a strategy for sustainable growth.
