Ready to grow, but not sure what the next move is?

THE TURNING POINT: Finding your path to growth is a half‑day workshop designed for established businesses who know there’s more potential within their business - and are ready to unlock it.

This interactive session blends practical strategy with reflective thinking to help you step back, reassess and move forward with clarity. You’ll explore the real drivers of sustainable growth, from mindset and capability to market positioning and uncover what’s holding your business back from its next stage.

Whether you’re feeling stuck, or simply ready to do things differently, this workshop will challenge your thinking and give you the tools to take decisive action. Expect a hands‑on, engaging environment that encourages fresh ideas, honest reflection and practical planning.

Topics covered:

  • Understanding the foundations of business growth: mindset, markets and skills.

  • Identifying hidden barriers and growth constraints in your business.

  • Recognising and responding to change as an opportunity.

  • Building clarity around your next strategic moves.

  • Measuring what truly matters.

What you’ll walk away with:

  • A clearer vision for your next phase of growth.

  • Practical insights into what’s driving (or blocking) progress in your business.

  • New ways of thinking about opportunity, change and capability.

  • Actionable ideas you can apply immediately.

  • Renewed confidence to make bold, informed decisions.

Who should attend

  • Established businesses ready to grow or pivot.

  • Business owners feeling stuck or uncertain about next steps.

  • Leaders looking to sharpen their strategy and direction.

  • Anyone ready to challenge their thinking and explore new opportunities.

Adrian Jobson has spent nearly three decades sitting across the table from business owners - as a CEO, a board director, and for the past decade as a mentor and consultant to small and medium enterprises. That time has taught him one thing above all: every owner wrestles with the same handful of questions, even when it doesn't feel that way from the inside. His practice, Growth Principals, draws on formal training in organisational change, ontological coaching, brand identity and behavioural dynamics - but the real grounding comes from listening to what owners are genuinely up against.
His workshops are designed for growth seekers and change-makers.
