Business Support Groups: Empowering entrepreneurs and businesses to thrive:
Whether you’re just starting out, scaling your operations, or navigating obstacles along the way, having the right support network is crucial.
Our Business Support Groups provide a collaborative environment where founders, entrepreneurs and business leaders come together to share experiences, gain insights, and achieve sustainable success.
Why Join a Business Support Group?
Trusted leadership
Each group is led by Respia’s founders, who are committed to the success of each member. Through coaching and facilitation, we help stimulate thinking, frame issues, guide discussions and keep the meetings focused and productive. This ensures that every session delivers maximum value, empowering you to tackle business challenges head-on.
Timely input
When you’re uncertain about how to proceed, you can plug into the collective wisdom of fellow business owners to keep you moving forwards with confidence. Our groups provide structured forums to vet ideas, analyse options, and receive unbiased feedback, so you can make informed, timely decisions that propel your business forward.
Accountability and balance
You can break down challenges, prioritise tasks, and set realistic goals in a curated supportive group. By working with peers who hold you accountable, you’ll stay on track and create a better work-life balance.
One-to-one coaching
As a group member you’re also able to meet one-to-one with Respia’s founders for collaborative coaching sessions. Here you’re free to dive deeper into the issues you wish to explore, gaining bespoke guidance to help you overcome any obstacles.
We carefully curate Business Support Groups of 5-7 peers from non-competing companies creating a confidential space for you to talk candidly about the decisions you face.
Rapid growth comes from diverse perspectives. Your group will bring together individuals from a wide range of markets and backgrounds, offering unique insights and innovative solutions to help you grow as a leader.
All you need to do is bring yourself.
“I gained a ton of clarity on the business challenges I was facing through the group meetings and hearing the perspectives of others.” – Tom Lahdenranta.
You’ll meet monthly with the same group for 2½ hours benefitting from a consistent, structured forum to work through challenges and opportunities with peers. Together we tackle challenges, discuss problems, and develop best practice.
Respia handles all logistics and holds space for you to establish networks of support and trust that will transform your business now and help sustain it in the future.
All our work is online via Zoom, allowing us to work with you wherever you are based.
“Initially I didn’t know what to expect. But with the expert support of Neil and Christian, we quickly became comfortable collaborating together as a group.” – James Gatheral.
Respia’s founders lead each of your sessions using a proven framework for processing issues and keeping discussions focused, productive and efficient.
When you need help and support with a decision, you can rely on the group as a team of trusted advisors. Your fellow members will contribute their diverse experience and insights, empowering you to make informed decisions and grow as a leader.
“The group has a structured approach that focuses on processes and finding creative ways to succeed.” – Jolana Feherova.
In addition to these meetings, you’ll receive one-to-one coaching sessions with Respia’s founders. An opportunity to dig deeper into your challenges, making sure you’re getting the best from your group, and ensure you have the ongoing support you need.
“I learned how to best present myself and build a personal brand, how to transform the inspiring suggestions and great questions from the one-to-one coaching and group discussions into an actionable clear plan.” – Andreea Nicoleta Stefanescu.
Additional resources and materials also help group members put ideas into action. Respia provides tools and techniques for group members to use between meetings and share with their colleagues.
