SEMINAR: Business Planning

This seminar is designed for Cultivate's 'Progress' development programme participants. However, some places will be open to all organisations. To find out more about 'Progress' visit the Projects page.   

Business planning is a critical element in the achievement of organisational and individual goals and objectives, and/or part of a funding application.  Business plans serve many purposes, including the establishment of a “route map”, risk management, review and monitoring. This course has been designed to be practical in nature and will help delegates to:

• Set strategic goals
• Prepare more robust business plans
• Understand the role and purpose of planning
• Provide you with some business planning tools
• Devise an effective monitoring and review system.

The training will be led by Mahmood Reza, who is a qualified and experienced accountant, trainer and writer who runs his own accountancy, training and management service business.  His skills and experiences have been developed within the cultural, commercial and public sector over the last twenty five years.  

Mahmood has been actively involved in the creative and cultural sector for over twenty years – ranging from board membership, working within the sector and a growing client base.  He also teaches at Aston Business School, is a course director for a London based management college and has done training and consultancy work overseas in Russia, Cuba and East Africa.
