Focus of 1-2-1 Session

A 1:1 session with Amanda can be used to support you and your business in 3 ways:

  • Business planning stress testing - to ensure your business and financial model and overall strategy is robust. Amanda can review this overall or you may want to focus on specific areas.
  • Investment readiness - are you prepared to raise? Amanda can review pitch decks and supporting materials or focus on specific areas.
  • Troubleshooting/Sounding Board - use the time to unblock challenges or unlock opportunities.

 

Being a founder or business leader can be a busy, overwhelming and often lonely place. A 1:1 session can be used to focus on any aspect of your current business venture, either to work through a problem area or brainstorm ideas.

  • Key insights or context related to the focus area.
