Business Leader is the UK’s Growth Programme for founders and CEOs of mid-sized businesses (£3m–£100m+ turnover). We help leaders scale faster through a clear, stage-based growth programme shaped by founders who’ve already built billion-pound businesses. Our Growth Programme is built around the 9-Step Framework developed by Richard Harpin - who scaled his first venture from £50k to £4.1bn - giving CEOs a practical, proven roadmap to grow with confidence. - Proven framework for scaling your business Our stage-based growth programme provides the structure, clarity and momentum leaders need to break through their next ceiling. It’s designed to simplify complexity, sharpen decision-making and help founders move from founder-operator to true CEO. - Peer groups that accelerate growth Members join curated groups of leaders at the same stage of scale, working through real challenges together, making smarter decisions faster and staying out of the weeds. Every session delivers practical takeaways that can be applied immediately, from strategy and hiring to funding and leadership. - Guidance from billion-pound CEOs Participants learn directly from Richard Harpin and from our ambassadors such as Chrissie Rucker (The White Company), Martin Dickie & James Watt (BrewDog) and Jayne-Anne Gadhia (Virgin Money) - each of whom has created over £1bn in enterprise value and continues to open their playbooks to help members scale. - Insight that sharpens your strategy Members also access premium content from Business Leader magazine, award-winning podcasts, invite-only CEO forums and high-impact events like Growth 500, celebrating the UK’s fastest-growing companies.
