What it is
One day of clarity, alignment and decisions
For founders who want deeper strategic input, Nik offers a limited number of Founder Strategy Days each quarter. Each one is a strategy away day for your senior team: time together, out of the pressure of daily operations, to focus on alignment, clarity and structured decision-making.
Most leadership teams spend their time on the week in front of them. A day set aside, led by an experienced founder, makes room for the decisions that keep being deferred: which priorities come first, who owns them and what the next stage of the business needs from each person in the room.
The day is founder-led and tailored to your stage of growth or exit readiness. It can focus on your growth priorities, on preparing for an exit, or on the decisions that sit between the two. It can be held on-site at your business or off-site.
How the day works
The shape of the day
One day with Nik and your senior team, prepared for in advance and written up afterwards.
Before
Pre-session briefing
A briefing ahead of the day sets its purpose and the questions that matter most, so that the day starts with focus rather than warm-up.
During
A full day with Nik
Nik attends for the full day and leads your senior team through structured sessions on your priorities, drawing on 34 years of building, scaling and exiting businesses.
After
A concise post-event summary
You receive a concise summary of the day, so that the decisions made and the next steps agreed are recorded and do not fade once everyone is back at their desks.
Who is in the room
Nik, and your senior team
Nik attends for the full day, on-site at your business or off-site.

In Jane Hart’s words
Nik in front of a room
Nik has spoken at a Siemens plc annual leadership forum of more than 150 UK and Ireland leaders. Read more about Nik Spencer, or see Nik as a speaker, in Jane Hart’s words.
Last year Nik kindly agreed to speak at our annual leadership forum. The forum brings together over 150 leaders from the UK and Ireland company and Nik gave a hugely insightful and informative, thought-provoking talk … He explains the issues clearly in a calm, well-informed, measured way that engages the audience and constructively facilitates discussion.
