Current practice lacks a clear definition of corporate growth, despite its critical role in achieving and sustaining long-term success in the corporate and global arena.

This course aims to provide participants with a clear understanding of corporate growth, with a focus on how sales, earnings, and total assets and cashflow sustainability underpins this growth. Participants will learn to navigate organic and non-organic growth strategies, using management models to address challenges. The course also emphasises on the importance of equity value growth as the ultimate measure of success and introduces a Corporate Planning Framework that integrates cashflow sustainability. Real-world case studies will further illustrate key concepts and their application in practice.

At the end of this course, you will be able to

• Explain the key drivers of corporate growth, including sales, earnings, total assets, and the role of cashflow sustainability;
• Apply strategic analysis tools (e.g., Gap Analysis, Ansoff Matrix, BCG Matrix, Porter’s Five Forces) to identify challenges and opportunities for corporate growth;
• Analyse the differences between organic and non-organic growth frameworks and assess their effectiveness using real-world metrics;
• Evaluate the risks and pitfalls associated with mergers and acquisitions, including the use of financial models to support decision-making; and
• Develop a strategic corporate growth plan.
