Workshops

• Workshops are conducted in private one-on-one formats or in a setting where up to 6 CEOs are present.
• Prior to the workshop, confidentiality agreements are signed and all discussions are held strictly confidential.
• Workshops are tailored to fit into a one-day or two-day format.

As a CEO, you have no peers and no one to really talk to or anyone who can challenge your ideas without spin or personal agendas. You have no one in your organization that really understands what your responsibility really entails and the heavy lifting and dilemmas that you face every day. No one in your organization can help you — because they have never been in your shoes and therefore cannot possibly understand the tight rope that you walk on everyday.

Objectives

Workshops are designed to get you, the CEO (only CEOs are permitted to be present), to deal with the subtle issues facing you in growing your business, and discuss formulas and principles for helping you identify and effectively deal with these issues. The issues range from the conceptual (e.g. future & strategic direction of your company) to the immediate (e.g. cash flow, organizational issues, sales strategies and tactics, etc.).

Sam Khoury will use your company-specific information and data in working through the issues and dilemmas that will be discussed during the workshops.

Value

During these workshops, you will discover the subtle and overt actions (and non-actions) that typically, and often unintentionally, place organizations on the wrong path or in situations of significant peril.

You will leave with several time-tested tools and "formulas" for helping you achieve the results you really want, along with a belief in your ability to respond and a deep sense of "knowing" the path to driving your business to its next level. During the workshops, Sam will also discuss and share:

• The science vs. art of running of a business — what do you really need and how much of it is science vs. art.
• The 9 secrets of successful businesses — how to apply them.
• The 7 ways to ruin a business — how to recognize and avoid them.
• The complexities of and ways of dealing with being on top.

Results

The workshops are very much like having your personal coach sitting next to you. You will:

• Experience a new way of thinking about how to solve your everyday business problems and a new way of seeing your business.
• Have tools at your disposal so you can make the hard decisions without much affect on your stomach lining.
• See a path to grow your skill set — so you can grow your business;
• Have tools to help you deal with the many dilemmas of running your business;
• Understand how to develop your organization and the importance of synchronizing the stages of your own life cycle vs. your company's life cycle.
