How We Help Founders & CEOs & Their Companies

To scale your business you must also scale yourself and your leadership team

But the numbers aren’t exactly stacked in your favour…

  • 60% of new businesses fail within their first 3 years
  • Sadly only 3% of businesses will generate >$2M in revenues
  • Only 0.45% will ever exceed $10M in revenues, only 0.15% will generate over $25M, and only 0.08% will generate >$50m
  • 40% of new leaders fail within the first 18 months on the job

We can show you exactly what the successful companies are doing to generate their success and how our clients are able to double revenue and 10X the value of their business, using the same strategies.

Do I or my company need a Mentor/Coach/Growth Advisor?

“Everybody Needs a Coach.”
– Eric Schmidt, Chairman of Alphabet and former CEO of Google.

“Great coaches lie awake at night thinking about how to make you better. They relish creating an environment where you get more out of yourself. Coaches are like great artists getting the stroke exactly right on a painting. They are painting relationships. Most people don’t spend a lot of time thinking about how they are going to make someone else better. But that’s what coaches do.”
Ronnie Lott describing Bill Campbell, Coach to Apple and Google leadership teams, amongst many others.

What Our CEO Clients Have To Say

Jonathan is a regular guest speaker and panel moderator at our E-Lead events, delivering powerful insights on leadership and purpose. Jonathan shares his inspirational story in highly interactive and insightful workshops where his knowledge and guidance open fresh and valuable perspectives for all participants.

As part of Scale Up Growth Partners monthly Mastermind group, I have experienced first-hand the implementation of Jonathan’s proven framework and disciplines from his years of practical expertise. He is what I would call a master in his field and would recommend Jonathan to entrepreneurial business leaders and their executive teams who want to successfully scale their business and accelerate growth.

Shahid Majeed

CEO, E-LEAD Global

I joined Jonathan’s mastermind in 2022. Jonathan is a lifelong student of entrepreneurial success, Jonathan is a master communicator and can succinctly explain the scale up concepts. I had many ‘Aha’ moments. More, as a founder and CEO I always have more questions than answers. The complexities in managing up, down, sideways, internally, externally is a constant challenge. Straight talk from Jonathan was gold when I needed someone to get me out of my own head.

Working with Jonathan means I now make better decisions which in my role is critical and my ultimate value to the business.

Jon Hui

Group CEO, Eco Easy Group

Thank you Jonathan. I’m very grateful for your contribution to me and my leadership team over the past few years. We set ourselves a goal that was based on a 3 year vivid vision that you helped me with – about 18 months ago, which set an ambitious goal around a bunch of key things in our business. I am pleased to say that becoming certified as a great place to work in all 5 countries we operate in APAC – Australia, NZ, China, HK & Singapore has been well and truly achieved as we reached that in less than half the time frame.

Mike Morgan

Senior Vice President & Managing Director APAC at Insight

Jonathan’s distinctive style of engagement has improved my thinking and spurred me on to do things so much quicker in scaling up my business. He’s easy to talk to, completely understands the challenges of business and has introduced me to a strong network of entrepreneurs in a similar position. Jonathan has a flexible and professional, yet firm approach. His frameworks, level of thinking and enormous experience is invaluable.

Nick Grande

Managing Director, Grande Drill and Blast

Jonathan is a genuine, experienced business coach that has truly transformed my business in less than a year. Every session contains little nuggets of gold that continuously inspire me to refine the way I think about my business in combination with my personal life, enabling me to level up and achieve my dream life. The tailored 1:1 experience has been further complimented by the 10x Mastermind which provides an actionable success blueprint and connections to an like-minded peer group of incredible entrepreneurs that I can rely on for robust feedback at any hour of the day or night.

Simone Ryan

Managing Director, SNH Consulting

I’ve found working with Jonathan that he is highly professional and really knows his stuff. The concepts and the way in which he delivers them are easy to implement and life changing. Jonathan’s superpower is to challenge the norm. He has a unique way of looking at business from a macro down to a micro level, quickly identifying clear, actionable and successful outcomes. He is highly personable, non-judgemental and a real pleasure to work with. I would have no hesitation in recommending Jonathan as a coach in tandem with his monthly mastermind group.

Christopher Murray

Director, Aurora Capital Australia

Our team has never been more aligned and focused – after just one workshop with Jonathan.

Sam Aloschi

Head of Site, Coles Retail Ready Operations Australia

Jonathan has delivered tremendous value in a short period of time to my business. He has years of practical experience in the tools and frameworks that he coaches. This combined with his enthusiasm and commitment make him a valued long-term strategic partner.

It has been great to be part of the Mastermind group. Jonathan has a wealth of knowledge that many business owners can benefit from. I enjoy his practical approach and support.

Oksana Koriakova

Founder & CEO, Impero Group

Jonathan and Scaling Up Advisers added real value to our company by quickly aligning our team toward a real agreed purpose and helped us to refine our long term goals. Critical for My Local Foodie he gave us the tools to uncover and focus on our imperative quarterly priorities to enable us to gain the momentum we need to grow.

Glen Harris

General Manager, My Local Foodie

The secret to success is that there really are no secrets. However, there is certainly a framework and Jonathan has spent a lifetime studying just this. Not only can Jonathan help you build the right team, but he will also keep you honest on the journey from strategy to execution – ensuring you build healthy and repeatable rhythms to profitably scale your business. Along the way, he is sure to become an insightful colleague, an experienced ear and cohort you can depend on when you most need sage counsel. I’d cheerfully recommend his team to yours.”

Andre Wyzenbeek

Managing Director, John Morris Scientific

Jonathan is forward-thinking, intrepid and has a willingness to take calculated risks. He has a bias toward thoughtful action. He is strategic yet tactical – he has a vision and is able to execute. He is decisive yet inclusive. In all situations, Jonathan has exceeded my expectations.

Hon. Michael Yabsley

Chairman, Australia Gulf Council, ex NSW Minister of State for State Development, Tourism & Corrective Services, ex Federal Treasurer of Liberal Party of Australia

In my career, I have dealt with and/or done business with a considerable number of persons … Many were ordinary, some were good, but only a few were truly excellent; Jonathan Herps is one of these few truly excellent people. He is a very enthusiastic, extremely articulate, numerate and truly dedicated professional. He is an excellent team player and a first rate business man of the highest standing.

Chris Slims

Former CEO of Aldar Properties and Naseej BSC

In every case, Jonathan met his Highness’ expectation of exemplary ethical behaviour and world-class business standards.

Eyhab Jumean

CEO, ABu Dhabi Capital and SBK Holdings

Jonathan is both grounded and visionary with an energy that provides those around him with inspiration and confidence. He has a naturally innovative “DNA” which is highly complementary to his strategic development capabilities. One can be assured of timely and well-rounded delivery from him together with superb relationship management skills.

Nicola Pero

CEO

Jonathan is a regular speaker and panel participant in our conferences in the Middle East, Saudi Arabia and Asia. His inputs to these sessions are always highly intellectual, visionary and thought-provoking – which is no surprise that he is widely and highly respected within the industry.

Saudin Dungog-Noddings

Conferences Manager, Cityscape, IIR Middle East

My great coach, Jonathan, has given me so many great tools and FORCED me to step back and plan. Which is exactly what I needed.

Here is what we’ve done this year:

⭐ Totally changed our internal meeting structure, the cadence, the flow and how we run them – this small change has really impacted us greatly as a team.

⭐Set 3-year vision and I have broken this down into quarterly sprints that the WHOLE team knows and we track EVERY week!

⭐ Set up one-on-ones with each team member every 2 weeks- where the team have the opportunity to talk with their Manager and discuss what’s working, what isn’t and also how they play a role in achieving our KPIs. This has been the single greatest change- having that time to help the team develop, grow and have open conversations is huge!

This is just phase 1 of EVT reimagined, but gosh it’s exciting and because I know where we are heading, I also know exactly where we are on that journey 💪🤩

Meaning, that as a business, in 5 weeks, we plan to sit back celebrate smashing our goals for the quarter & be where we want to be moving into 2024!!! 🍾

Mercedes Ibbett

Managing Director EVT Incentive Marketing
Thankyou Jonathan. We are now working so well together as a team, and while we are still developing, we are at a point where we can plan and execute within our team.
 
You have helped us immensely on our journey …

Phil Sneddon

CEO & Founder – HIPAC Healthcare
I really do admire and respect you and feel that you have given me a huge amount of wisdom, friendship and improved me as a leader and human. You have helped me: 
1.     Prioritise my personal goals.
2.     Set 3-year plan for the business.
3.     Built a high performing executive team.
4.     Increased focus on people/hiring rather than doing – focussed my business on “who not how”.
5.     Move from doer to coach.
6.     Implemented greater discipline in terms of tempo of strategy and meetings.
7.     Become more disciplined about moving people out when they don’t work.
8.     Read dozens of books (greater velocity in finding high quality readings).

Dan Hilson

Founder & CEO – Evenergi
It is a pleasure to offer my endorsement of Jonathan Herps as a business coach where it is clearly Jonathan’s passion to grow remarkable Companies and Leaders. Jonathan started with us as a NonExecutive Director in our Australian Company in November 2015 and this progressed to Jonathan also being the business coach to our Global operations in June 2018.
 
Jonathan has brought innovative ideas to age old problems within companies by challenging normal, accepted business practices. Jonathan has clearly communicated to our team the importance of corporate culture, recruiting for values and embedding these values in everything we do by way of implementing step by step processes which are easy for everyone to follow.
 
Furthermore, Jonathan has been resolute in embedding full accountability, performance and commitments in each team and individual based on clear leading and lagging performance indicators. This change has required Jonathan to work with all our teams and individuals in open, fair and firm discussions in what is required to move the company forward in a positive manner.
 
I am grateful to be working with a Jonathan who fully invests his time and energy into helping to make our business a success.

So what does a Coach actually do?

Whether you need help growing your company, strategic planning, raising capital or navigating a challenging economic landscape, we leverage the most effective tools and evidence-based best practices to help you achieve results.

If you’ve gotten as far as you can on your own, we can help you uncover any limitations that are holding you back and help you take your business to the next level.

Focus
All too many entrepreneurs chase too many “shiny objects”. Yet, when studying people enjoying greater success than most others, it’s clear they are focused.

Devil’s Advocate
Providing you with a peer-to-peer sounding board. We act as your co-architect in the creation of a scalable action plan designed to accelerate your success ASAP. Possibly the 2 greatest questions of all time: “WHY?” and “WHAT ELSE?”. Be prepared for your Coach to ask them repeatedly.

Confidante
A confidential sounding board for the CEO – so that CEO can bounce ideas off of them, share their feelings with them, and trust them in a confidential nature. We ask the right questions to draw the CEO out.

Third Party Sounding Board
The Coach brings an outsider’s fresh set of eyes for the CEO to bounce off ideas. They act as a resource who has a vested interest in the company without a vested interest in “keeping his/her job.” The Coach is someone who has “been there, done that.”

Accountability Partner
With our experience building companies into fast-growing and profitable firms, we know how to hold people accountable and how important this is. Simply put, it makes a difference!

Proven Learning Content, Framework and Tools
