Business growth can be achieved externally through acquisitions, or through internal strategies. Taking your business to the next level under either scenario can be a complex process. Frequently, the barriers to growth are talent or access to capital. And even with the appropriate resources, orchestrating a seamless repositioning of the business without managing the cultural impact can be risky.
