Its what every business owner needs to know, How To Fast Track Your Business. Ask yourself these questions.

How do you find the right staff for a fast growing business?

How To Fast Track Your Business with Bishopsgate Financial


  • Understand your marketplace and your audience’s needs in order to provide a product/service which is genuinely in demand – spot gaps in the market which you can address
  • Think outside the box to deliver something different – i.e. Bishopsgate Financial’s Advance Training Programme which offers career opportunities to ex-services personnel and provides Bishopsgate Financial with a pool of home grown talent.
  • Consider how to attract the best skills – look at transferrable skills/people from other industries. Offer training and responsibilities to inexperienced staff and help them to rise to new challenges.
  • Empower your staff /ensure they feel involved in the business and motivated to help the business to grow.
  • Managing Director’s leadership skills are critical for a fast-growing business – ensure that he/she is given support (through training/mentoring etc) to evolve from a hands-on to strategic role

Developing a strong company culture, values and ethos is key for a fast-growing business

 

  • Learning from different industries is important for a fresh perspective
  • Ensure your company values represent the brand and that all employees understand and adhere to these values – this will help with the positive external perception of your organisation
  • Treating staff with respect and providing excellent career opportunities and training will help with staff retention
  • Training raw talent will ensure that you have exactly the right skills you need for your business
  • A focus on leadership skills for the MD and senior team is key for driving the business forward
