AXA SME Masterclass

The theme of the course is business growth, with particular emphasis on the impact and challenges that directors face in managing growth. Over the three days, our expert facilitators will support delegates in making an objective assessment of their capabilities and help them to develop key business skills, such as leadership and managing change. This is an exciting opportunity to consider these issues with a group of like-minded individuals away from the office in a fantastic location.

An enterprise faces many barriers when it is looking to expand and its leaders must also tackle some very personal challenges. As the organisation grows, they are forced to re-evaluate their roles and question their own management capabilities. Motivating teams and managing large scale change does not come easily to all. This is also a time for the founders to revisit and re-evaluate their personal and business goals.

It is also often the case that future growth can only be achieved through quite radical change which can require a shift in the mindset of those in charge.

Another problem SME leaders face is finding the right help and support for their development and that of their company. Formal business qualifications do not always seem relevant to the needs of those managing a smaller enterprise and business consulting firms target larger organisations on the whole. The AXA and Financial Mail on Sunday Master Class has been specially designed with small businesses in mind.

The prize includes:

  • Two and a half days residential course
  • Three nights stay in luxury accommodation near Paris, including food and drink
  • Travel to and from Paris
