One Page Business Plan Training for US Chapters
Posted on January 12, 2009
Filed Under Act Professionally, Cultural Beliefs, Focus Efforts, Meet Purposefully
At long last we’re ready to help our chapters create their own One Page Business Plan. To do so we’re going to use Go To Meeting – a web based virtual meeting service that allows everyone to view the same documents at the same time and speak/listen in a teleconference setting. This virtual training meeting will be conducted in English only and is meant for US Chapters.
Training Date: Thursday, January 29, 2009 8:00AM – 9:00AM Pacific Time
How To Register:
We are limited to 15 participants. The first 15 to contact Joel Deceuster will be permitted to register.
Please contact our One Page Business Plan Trainer, Joel Deceuster, and he’ll send you the Go To Meeting information and phone number to dial in. Joel@FocusYourBusinessNow.com Be sure to tell him which session you will attend. There is no cost for the training but each chapter will be required to purchase a book. The book is called, The One Page Business Plan for Non-Profit Organizations. You can get it for about $23.00 through Amazon. Be sure to get the “Non-Profit” edition of the book since there are editions created for Entrepreneurs, Financial Services and Professional Consultants. The book has a CD in the back with contains all the digital tools we’ll use to implement the plan.
How to Prepare:
Participants will be sent a copy of the master One Page Business Plan for the BYU Management Society. We suggest you review it and seek to align your chapter goals with those of the World-Wide Management Society. The Steering Committee enjoyed great success in 2008 because of this plan and have updated it by creating a new One Page Business Plan for 2009. We’d also recommend that you read the book, The One Page Business Plan for Non-Profit Organizations. It’s an easy read and will help you to prepare your understanding for the 5 simple steps for creating a plan. It’s not essential to read the book in advance. We realize the time is short until our training session and you might not be able to have it delivered in a sufficient amount of time to read.

For over one year now the worldwide Steering Committee has used the One Page Business Plan as the primary vehicle by which we do our business. We were trained and guided through this process by Joel Deceuster, master business coach.
Our experience has been nothing short of phenomenal. I believe if you ask any member of our Steering Committee you would find a unanimous and enthusiastic endorsement. This program helps us focus and keep “first things first.” Without it, we bounce around and grab for any “shiny object” that comes our way. We are always excited but do not achieve our highest goals.
I would recommend the One Page Business Plan Joel Deceuster to anyone who wants to become more focused and accomplished their objectives.
Joel:
Thank you so much for offering this training on the One Page Business Plan to our chapters. I can tell you from personal experience that I think this has been the single most important thing we have done as a Steering Committee to make measurable progress in moving forward with the Vision of Growing Moral and Ethical Leadership around the World.
I have also implemented the principles you taught in the one page business plan in my business and in my family — they are SO HELPFUL at keeping people focused on what is really important and in making progress. I sincerely hope that each chapter will take advantage of this incredible opportunity to received training on the One Page Business Plan for your chapter. You’ll be so happy you did!

For the last year and a half Joel Deceuster has led our Steering Committee on an adventure with the “One Page Business Plan.” We used to talk about a lot of exciting ideas that popped in our minds and had a lot of fun doing so. However, it was difficult to keep track of everything we were trying to do and follow up on things.
With the OPBP and Joel’s help, we have become so much more incredibly focused. The OPBP has become our agenda for each of our monthly conference calls. The OPBP forces us to prioritize and not leave in the dust are most important objectives. It really is a lot of fun and very rewarding. I recommend it to anyone in business or even those working with nonprofits.
