Programme benefits

  • Seed: Your project is still in the early stages, perhaps you haven’t launched it yet. We will help you to clarify your goals, develop an action plan, attract resources, overcome obstacles and develop the skills and confidence to launch your project.
  • Growth: Your project is underway, but you want to develop its effectiveness and sustainability. We will help you to reflect on the early successes and development areas of your project so far, (re)align with your sense of purpose and vision, set goals, identify and overcome obstacles and develop the skills and confidence needed to take your project to the next level.
  • Expansion: You have an established project, but you want to expand its reach, scope or effectiveness. We will help you to evaluate your project’s impact so far, reflect on the context in which your project exists and what needs you are seeking to address, connect with your sense of vision and purpose, identify and overcome barriers and enhance the resourcefulness, resilience and self-awareness needed to expand your project.
