The Australian Owner Manager Program is a practical, compressed, residential development program designed exclusively for business owners. It follows a proven philosophy and process that has been tested and refined for more than a decade.
The core of the program includes five x 3-day monthly residential workshops where business owners are challenged by their peers, a range of facilitators, subject experts, coaches and mentors across broad business topics.
COVID has affected each and every business across Australia, and the world. Whether it is growth, transition, supply chain, or staff, the market and business has changed and 2022 is the perfect time to step back and rethink the way you approach your business and reinvigorate yourself.

The Owner Manager Program has been specifically designed for owners of established businesses with revenues of $3m – $100m. Almost 20 years of experience has shown us that these owners often face similar challenges of commercial and personal growth. The proven process that the Program follows creates a ‘super charged’ environment where lateral thinking helps to unlock potential and break down barriers to success.
You get a fresh prespective… I began to rely on my team as an unofficial advisory group, who were there to help. It changed my outlook on everything.
