Workshop: Waypoints 4 & 5: The Switchbacks & The Saddle (CATALYST)

Jon Kowanetz’s True North Business Mapping series is designed as a modular, progressive roadmap for business leaders. While each of the five workshops builds logically upon the previous one to form a complete blueprint for growth, every session is a self-contained "waypoint" packed with standalone tools and insights.

Whether participants attend the full 5-part series or drop in for specific topics, they will walk away with actionable strategies they can immediately apply to their business. This is the 3rd workshop in Jon's Business Mapping series. 

Waypoints 4 & 5: The Switchbacks & The Saddle - Build a Business That Works Without Everything Running Through You

Growth creates complexity, and many businesses focus on continuing growth without addressing the complexity, which creates a ceiling on your potential. This workshop examines how the right systems and processes keep your business moving, along with the importance of culture and team alignment needed making those systems work. You’ll identify where your business creates unnecessary friction, where better structure could make a meaningful difference and how to get buy-in from your team.
