Business of International Quality
WHAT IS IT?
We know that business owners can find it hard to take a big picture perspective and identify areas of their business that could be targeted to improve performance. This is why we have created the Business of International Quality (BIQ™) Barometer in collaboration with staff from the University of Auckland Business School. It is based on academic research and backed up by conversations with industry experts and those in the thick of it; NZ business owners and managers.
The BIQ™ Barometer is an easy to use online tool designed to help you identify your business strengths and opportunities for improvement in under an hour.
The outcome is real and practical advice that you can use as a guide to accelerate your business growth, whilst avoiding the costs of making the mistakes of those who have gone before.
WHY DO IT?
The BIQ™ Barometer will help make your business more successful by honing in on six areas that we know contribute to success: Leadership, Offering, Market, Processes, Governance, and Capital.
By answering simple questions across each of the six areas you’ll have instant access to a tailored report, plus a PDF copy you can download for future reference.
Whether your idea of success is taking on an international market, or defending your local position, you can grow your business with good advice and practical solutions.
WHO IS IT FOR?
The BIQ™ Barometer was developed for ambitious entrepreneurs and owner managers who want to get a better understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of their business and identify opportunities for growth. From startups through to the largest owner managed businesses, the BIQ™ Barometer gives you the information you need to take your business to the next level.
