De Montfort University Leicester (DMU) has started delivering its new Help to Grow: Management program, designed to help small and medium enterprises (SMEs) scale up as the United Kingdom recovers from the pandemic.
The new program, which is 90 percent funded by the government, is a mix of online learning and in-person workshops run on campus.
Key Takeaways:
- Business leaders have started their studies on a new program offered at DMU.
- DMU designed the Help to Grow: Management program to empower SMEs to scale up and recover from the pandemic.
- The new program is a mix of online learning and in-person workshops for SMEs.
The Help to Grow program at DMU is run by industry professionals who are experts in their fields and will teach everything, from adopting responsible business practices to engaging and inspiring teams.
The university’s new offering will be providing senior managers and leaders of SMEs with comprehensive and efficient management tools that they can employ in their respective businesses to grow, innovate, and drive economic recovery from the pandemic.
DMU has recruited a team of mentors from the business sector to welcome and support the first cohort to the program. The mentors are on hand to help by providing a sounding board, practical advice, and support throughout the program and beyond.
Since the management program caters to senior managers and leaders of SMEs, students can take the lessons while still managing their businesses. They will have access to mentoring and can also tap the alumni network.
The delivery of the program is done in partnership with the Chartered Association of Business Schools (CABS) to support senior leaders. It delivers training, workshops, and a peer network to help boost performance, resilience, and long-term growth.
Toward the end of the management program, business leaders are expected to develop a tailored business growth strategy to drive their business to its full potential.
DMU will offer two subsequent programs in 2022.
