Here’s what happened when they did.

Every manager and business owner who joins the 12-Week Management Masterclass shares a common goal: to lead with confidence, empower their team, and free up time.

"“Before joining, I was buried in daily operations and had no time to think strategically. By week 6, I had systems in place that freed up my evenings, and by graduation, we’d grown sales 35%." - Laura M. | Retail Business Owner

"I didn’t think another course could make a difference — until this one. The accountability, the tools, and the clarity changed everything. I now run my team instead of chasing them." - Ashley T. | Marketing Agency Owner

"I always said I didn’t have time for coaching. What I learned is that I didn’t have systems. The Masterclass helped me fix that — and I finally feel in control of my time and results." - Kevin O. | Construction Business Owner

You could be the next success story.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does the 12-week Management Program cost?

This program costs $1200, payable to your business coach.

Why would I need a business coach?

There are endless reasons why a business owner, leader or senior manager would benefit from the support of a professional business coach. Being a business leader can be a lonely occupation as you need to wear many hats and often have little support outside of your family and friends. Your ActionCOACH will become your mentor, confidant and compassionate yet uncompromising friend. Your ActionCOACH will be there to guide you through the tough times and celebrate with you as you achieve your successes.

What is group coaching?

Group coaching is a method that involves coaching multiple individuals at once. In this approach, the coach works with a group of people who share common goals, challenges, or circumstances.

The group is a supportive environment where members give each other feedback, provide mutual support and develop a sense of community.

Our membership group coaching programs are designed around our ‘CARE’ philosophy.

‘C’ stands for ‘community’. Each of our group programs harnesses the power of shared learning and sense-making in a safe personal development ecosystem with other business owners and leaders at a similar stage in their journeys.

‘A’ stands for ‘Accountability’. Here you will be held to account by other members of your program in a supportive, fun environment. They want you to succeed and will challenge you to ensure that you achieve the goals and actions you set for yourself.

‘R’ stands for ‘Results’ as you will share and celebrate your successes with your peers and inspire one another to achieve even greater heights.

‘E’ stands for ‘Education’.

All of our programs are facilitated by a World-Class certified ActionCOACH Business Coach and supported by the world’s No.1 resource for business growth and education. You will learn new strategies, tools and frameworks to implement into your life and business straight away, ultimately empowering you to achieve the goals you have set for yourself.

How long do coaching programs last?

Each of the Masterclass (Business, Sales and Marketing) Programs last 12 weeks.

For other programs it will depends on your goals and how far you want to grow. Just like everything else in life, true performance requires a life-long commitment to self-development. There are no ‘quick fixes’ and we recommend undertaking a program of a minimum of 24 months to experience a significant, lasting change. In reality, our clients stay for much longer as there’s always a new challenge and their horizons are constantly evolving. Whether you're just starting out in business, have reached maturity and you're unsure where to go next or you're wanting to exit your business and get it working without you there, business coaching can start and continue at any point of your business journey. Would you like to have a story like theirs?

Are there extra charges to implement the strategies?

Absolutely not! You will find that implementing these strategies will actually save you money!

Whether you are on a group or 1:1 coaching program, you will be shown how to implement strategies and then be held accountable to do or delegate the work by your coach and your peers in the community. Everyone in the ActionCOACH family is committed to your business and personal growth and you will find support is happily given whenever you need it – whether that is from your coaches team or our wider ActionCOACH community of incredible business leaders.

How much time or work will I have to put in?

The main purpose of coaching is to help you become more efficient and effective in how you invest all of your resources, especially your time, which is the most valuable of them all. At the start of the coaching journey, we focus on time management to help you analyse your relationship with time, identify how you're currently spending it and provide you with clarity around your choices. This will help you make significant improvements in both productivity and efficiency, allowing you to invest more of your time working on the business as a true leader rather than in the business as just a part of the machinery. We strongly recommend that you dedicate at least 20% of your time to working on activities, and we will assist you in finding ways to achieve this goal.
