High growth companies – lessons from the high performers
Posted: 21 Apr 2008
Innovators and entrepreneurs are missing opportunities to grow their companies according to Prof. Colin Coulson-Thomas speaking at the iFestival exhibition held at The Walkers Stadium in Leicester.
“They develop exciting new products while adopting inappropriate approaches to winning business. Their technical creativity needs to be matched by innovation in their approach to business building”.
Colin’s ‘Winning Companies; Winning People’ research programme identifies what successful people or winners do differently in areas such as winning business, building customer relationships and creating and exploiting know-how. Over 2,000 companies participated in the latest round of studies, and critical success factors or ‘winning ways’ for key business building activities have been identified.
