Owner Operator Programme

Gain access to the tools and help you need to drive progress and create positive change in your business.

For Hawke's Bay Business Owners.

The Owner Operator Programme provides a collaborative learning environment for owners of successful Hawke’s Bay businesses who find the business is relying too heavily on them. The programme will provide you with the tools, support and accountability to develop your skills and drive progress so you can step back from working in the business and start working on it.

Why do it?

On this programme you’ll take regular time out of your business. Our experts will help you to focus on the bigger picture and what you need to do to drive growth and create a better business.

You’ll acquire new skills and techniques to add to your tool kit and you’ll start addressing those strategic issues and opportunities which rarely get your attention.

Find accountability in a strong network of other business owners, start exploring and uncovering new opportunities for your business and maintain a better work-life balance.
