"Life is a mountain of solvable problems, and I enjoy that." James Dyson

Business growth needs a vision- an ability to see where you want to be and how you’re going to get there. Achieving this vision could involve anything from developing a more effective sales and marketing strategy to improving your operational performance.

As a registered GrowthAccelerator coaching organisation, Cognito will help you take a step back to see the bigger picture and develop a focused growth business strategy which will drive the performance of your business.

Is my business eligible?

To be eligible for GrowthAccelerator, your business needs to:

• Be determined to grow
• Be registered in the UK & based in England
• Have fewer than 250 employees
• Have a turnover of less than £40 million

Looking to bring scale to your business?  Need to find and win new customers? Cognito can help.

You’ll work with Business Development if you and your Growth Manager agree the performance of your business will benefit from a fresh look at where opportunities exist, what plans are in place to exploit them and whether the right team is in place to deliver.

Through coaching supported by workshops, you’ll identify areas of your business strategy that need the greatest support in addressing and avoiding the issues that create barriers to further growth.

Your coaching sessions will be led by your Cognito Growth Coach, who will introduce you to interactive business tools that you can use to develop a clear vision of where you want your business to be in three years. Together, you’ll also create a breakthrough plan for the next 12 months which focuses on the vital things you need to do to achieve your vision and accelerate the high growth journey of your business.

The cost of your coaching sessions and your workshops will be covered by your one-off investment in GrowthAccelerator.
