The sixth and final episode in the 5 Gears series, today’s episode focuses on the Strategic Growth Gear. This episode looks a little different from others in the series because strategic growth is not just about building other systems or how to optimize other systems — it's about really understanding when and how to expand your impact.
You’ll learn the four distinct paths of growth:
- Internal – Strengthening what you already have. This can look like creating leadership pipelines or enhancing your current programs.
- External – Your traditional market expansion. It includes opening up new locations, expanding to new neighborhoods, and creating pop-up programs.
- Vertical – Increasing your depth of impact. This is about adding advanced programs and extending your services.
- Horizontal – Broadening your impact through new revenue streams. It could be creating new training programs, developing new educational materials, or taking things that you've done and actually writing curriculum books.
💡Important → Choosing the wrong path is not just ineffective. It can actually destabilize every single thing that you've built.
