LUBS5536M Small Business Growth

Students in the LUBS5536M Small Business Growth module had the opportunity to present their growth strategies to real small businesses, applying the theory learned in the module to a relevant discipline.

Over the semester, students worked in groups to analyse and explore the growth strategies of relevant companies and to expand their skills and attributes in managing business growth. Companies such as Rekenrek 101 and Design Portfolio worked alongside the students, offering live consultancy workshops to support them with the knowledge and skills to explore business growth strategies.

Presentations demonstrated a strong, in-depth critical understanding of enterprise and entrepreneurship theories, as well as the application of the techniques taught to real-world contexts. Sarah and Amy at Rekenrek 101 expressed that the
