The Meteor Meta-Programme®
The Impact that Transforms Small Business Owners into Stellar Performers

Whatever the reason for being in business for themselves, entrepreneurs and small business owners set out with goals, ambitions, and every intention of being successful. Yet globally, 44% of small businesses fail in the first two years, and within five years, 80% have failed. In South Africa the statistics are even worse. Only 20% of entrepreneurial businesses who have received start-up and development assistance from government, NGOs and other support programmes (mostly financial, skills-based training and marketing), remain in business for more than 2 years.

Although there is a wealth of skills-based and networking resources available to entrepreneurs locally, these do not address the equally critical areas regarding the thinking, , beliefs, attitudes and behavioural styles necessary to have the best chance of business success.

Being an entrepreneur can mean a lonely and stressful existence:

• Who can they call on for an objective viewpoint, or a safe and confidential outlet for reviewing options?

• How do they take their existing skills, and those newly acquired through training, and turn them into those of chief marketer, accountant, human resources expert and customer services consultant all combined into one?

• Who makes sure they stay focused and on track?

• Who keeps them accountable for the action steps required to reach the goals described in their business plans?

Through a series of 5 x one-day workshop modules at monthly intervals, participants on the Meteor Programme© are able to clarify what is of real value and importance to them, and what they want from their businesses and their lives. The programme facilitates rapid transition in overcoming the negative factors that holds them back, consuming vital time, energy and focus.

Business Owners who complete the full Meteor Programme© are better equipped to drive their own performance and that of their businesses. They have clarity around goals and objectives, and have clearly defined, accountable plans for reaching these. They are able to build their success within the context of their own personal strengths, and are not deflected by setbacks. They have congruence between their work and personal lives. They are able to adjust to changing circumstances as they arise. Importantly, they have a strong support network of similarly minded individuals.

The Programme concludes with 1 x 2 day workshop module focused on sustainability of the participant’s own learnings, achievements and future progress, as well as a structure for empowering others by example and learning. Crucially, the Meteor Programme© also provides a platform for expansion and continuous growth. It translates further into a structure of peer and next generation mentorship and facilitation, thereby ensuring sustainability of enablement and success.
