Peer Networks – “Do it! Don’t give it a second thought!”
That was a recent quote from one of our 153 Business leaders and Managing Directors who have been part of the OxLEP Peer Networks programme over the last 8 months.
OxLEP Business have now launched a second Peer Networks Programme and you could be one of at least 165 business leaders who benefit.
FACT: Businesses that seek external advice or undertake formal training are more likely to improve their overall performance, and many prefer to take advice from trusted sources when presented with external challenges and opportunities.
Peer Networks is tailor-made to meet that demand:
- Creating groups of 11 SME owners for you to work with to grow your businesses together,
- Using facilitated ‘action learning’ to explore challenges and opportunities
- Providing coaches, mentors and business advisors to work with to further explore solutions to your challenges.
This is a great opportunity for you to create an expert virtual team to help you and your business to succeed.
One participant from the OxLEP Peer Networks programme said: “It is a really nice surprise when you raise a problem which you think is unique to your business, but then find out others have the same or similar ones. Even if they have not had similar experiences, the feedback and suggested solutions are often not what you would have expected or even thought about but still highly relevant and useful. Peer Networks is an invaluable opportunity to experience and benefit from this.”

Why joining a community of business leaders can enhance your reputation and credibility
I read a LinkedIn post recently that reassured business owners that if they’d managed to keep their businesses going during recession, Brexit, COVID and the cost-of-living crisis that they deserved a huge pat on the back and shouldn’t ‘beat themselves up’. Easier said than done when costs are rising and doing business seems to get harder rather than easier, but the sentiment was well-placed.
Why it’s important for Business Leaders to be exposed to new...
Nobody likes a ‘know it all’ and let’s face it, there’s no such thing. At the other end of the scale, many of us don’t create enough time to take on board new ideas, innovation and creativity in whatever format. How many times have you been recommended to read a book, get sent the link, go on Amazon, maybe even buy it but it just sits on your bookshelf? Come to think of it, as an aside, just think about that for a second….I wonder what the actual percentage of books purchased are actually read? Frightening thought!
