Founder of Founderise
Beverley Corson is the founder of Founderise and the author of the RISE methodology. She has spent more than 17 years coaching founders of established small businesses, working with thousands of business owners and coaching more than 70 businesses intensively through group accelerator programmes.
Most founders have written a plan. Very few are still using it by March. Why strategy dies in established small businesses, what a strategy is actually for, and how to build one the business keeps coming back to.
Why the day-to-day keeps winning, what actually decides where a founder's attention goes, and the rhythm that keeps important work moving week after week.
Strategy That Lives
I coached founders one to one for years before I ran my first group programme, and I expected the group to be a compromise. It was not. Here is what a small cohort of founders at the same stage does to the quality of a strategy, and to whether it survives.
Execution and Rhythm
Founders who never put off a client call will put off the work that grows the business for months. That is not a character flaw. It has a mechanism, and once you can see it you can design around it.
