Course + Assessment
BEGIN AT — START HERE [Mandatory]
How to Work With GROW YOUR BUSINESS & HOLD™
The GROW YOUR BUSINESS & HOLD™ journey consists of 51 modules across seven progressive phases.
Please begin with Start Here — How to Work With GROW YOUR BUSINESS & HOLD™ before entering the 51 modules.
The journey moves from developing the mindset required for growth, through strategic innovation, business mapping, value-added marketing, ethical influence, culture and team, and finally governance, self-regulation and continuity.
The purpose is not simply to grow the business.
It is to understand how to grow and hold the business in any environment.
Your Companion Workbook™
Every module has a Companion Workbook™.
The Workbook is part of your GROW YOUR BUSINESS & HOLD™ learning journey.
After completing each module, complete the corresponding Workbook before proceeding to the next module.
The Workbook gives you space to pause, reflect and work with the constitutional distinction introduced in the module.
It is not additional teaching.
It is where you deepen your understanding through reflection, examination and application to your own business.
Module → Companion Workbook™ → Next Module
Please do not treat the Workbook as optional reading.
Completing it before proceeding helps preserve the progressive movement of the GROW YOUR BUSINESS & HOLD™ journey.
Return to GROW YOUR BUSINESS & HOLD™ Whenever You Need
Your access is not limited to one pass through the course.
You can return to the modules as many times as you want.
If you want to work through GROW YOUR BUSINESS & HOLD™ again, simply uncheck the completed modules and the course will become available to you again.
You may revisit the course when:
- your business circumstances have changed
- your understanding has deepened
- you want to reflect on a particular module again
- you want to work through the Companion Workbook™ again
- you are facing a new growth decision
- you want to examine the business from a different stage or perspective
GROW YOUR BUSINESS & HOLD™ remains available to you for continued learning, reflection and application.
After Completing GROW YOUR BUSINESS & HOLD™
After completing all 51 modules across the seven phases, you will receive your Certificate of Completion.
The next step is the GROW YOUR BUSINESS & HOLD™ Assessment.
If you choose to pursue GROW YOUR BUSINESS & HOLD™ Certification, you will need to complete and pass the Assessment.
The Assessment draws across the complete GROW YOUR BUSINESS & HOLD™ journey and examines your recognition, understanding, application and judgement.
If you do not pass on your first attempt, you may retake the Assessment. A fresh set of questions is provided for each attempt.
The course develops constitutional understanding.
The Assessment measures that understanding.
Certification validates assessed capability.
THE HOLDING REVIEW™
Continue Reviewing What Matters.
Your GROW YOUR BUSINESS & HOLD™ journey does not end when you complete the 51 modules.
You will also receive The Holding Review™ as a downloadable resource.
The Review is designed to help you return to the constitutional understanding you have developed and consider how reliably you are growing and holding what matters in the business you are currently carrying.
You may use it:
- periodically, as a regular business review;
- when your business circumstances change significantly;
- when your business begins entering a different stage of growth;
- when responsibility or pressure increases;
- when you are considering a significant change, expansion or innovation;
- or whenever you sense that something important in the business may be becoming less reliable.
The purpose is not to measure success or failure.
It is to create a deliberate opportunity to pause, notice and understand what may be changing beneath visible business performance.
As The Holding Discipline™ explains, Holding is dynamic:
conditions change, pressure changes, the business changes and context changes.
The Review helps you remain attentive to that movement.
