Equally applicable for VC-backed businesses in scale-up mode,  mid-sized or larger PE-backed SaaS companies, through to publicly listed tech market leaders driving transformation – or to support PE and VC strategic investment decisions and senior appointments – we provide objective appraisal of the leadership infrastructure, performance, behaviour, culture and potential.

An essential element of our approach to CEO and Executive Development is to centre all analysis around the core objectives of achieving business strategy and maximising investor value. Looking beyond some of the standard, non-contextualised ‘personality/leadership profile’ type analysis, we aim instead to provide actionable insight into the current capabilities of leaders, the leadership dynamic and the overall organisational structure to deliver on strategic objectives. In so doing, we clearly identify any gaps and risks, and help clients develop leadership programmes that bridge these gaps, providing a leadership platform fully equipped for the journey ahead.

Leaders and Leadership teams embarking on a development programme with Aspen gain access to the Aspen Advisory Board, a unique cadre of proven industry thought leaders whose experience spans Board, CEO and C-suite Leadership across all functions.  The Board enables clients to tap into a confidential resource of unmatched experience, spanning wide-ranging topics such as category creation, On-Premise to Cloud transformation, global scale-up, penetrating new global markets, driving best-practice Customer Success, optimizing performance at IPO, ‘Scale to Sale’, Building to Culture, achieving Thought leader brands, and many more.
