Business leaders in West London are being encouraged not to miss out on a new Government-backed management programme being run at Brunel Business School in Uxbridge.

The Help to Grow: Management programme is designed to provide the management tools needed to help talented business leaders innovate, grow their business, and help drive economic recovery in West London. The 12-week programme is 90% subsidised by the Government as part of its Plan for Jobs, and is aimed at senior leaders of small and medium-sized businesses.

Designed to be manageable alongside full-time work, modules cover financial management, strategies for growth and innovation, how to lead a high-performance workplace and digital adoption. By the end of the programme, business leaders will have developed a tailored business growth plan to help lead their business to its full potential, with ongoing access to mentoring and an alumni network.

The next course begins at Brunel Business School on 6 Oct 2021, and is open now for applications, with another course due to begin on 13 Oct. Fees for the course are £750, payable on acceptance.

Announcing the programme, Small Business Minister Paul Scully said: “Seizing opportunity is what being a business leader is all about, and our Help to Grow Management Scheme gives entrepreneurs the chance to access the very best advice on how to innovate, reach new customers and boost profits.

“The practical training scheme is 90% funded by the government and designed around busy business owners’ schedules, so I would encourage entrepreneurs across the UK to get involved and maximise the potential of their business.
