Outside of attending the module sessions, there is very little pre-work. What there WILL be is an action to be taken after it. This does not need to be time consuming – but we suggest that you allow an hour or two. (If you can’t afford an hour to take action afterwards, then you’re probably not ready for the program.)
We also have revision sessions to ensure your understanding, along with email and phone support. So when you get back to work and find out that you “missed something” – you can get access to what you need when you need it.
We don’t TALK about how you should work on your business – we get you WORKING on your business – with all the support you need to take action.
If fortnightly group meetings are not your speed – that’s fine, we have Virtual delivery modules available as well. These self pace modules provide full coverage of the module content – including the tools and recommended homework.
They also include regular live Q&A sessions for complete learning.

After working with Stewart Clark from SCS Performance for about 4 months, I had already gained more value from my coaching sessions than I had from my previous coach over 18 months. Great practical guidance that I could implement straight away.
SCS performance has been an instrumental part of growing our family business. Professional, passionate and relevant – I have no hesitation recommending Stewart to friends or family, or anyone wishing to improve their business.
If you are thinking of working with Stewart don’t think just do it, the way he is able to strategise and get you to look at your business from a different point of view will make the difference between staying where you are at or taking your business to the next level.
