We are talking with the Horizon37 community and leaders throughout the scale-up business ecosystem and asking them what is the business impact of good or bad leadership on business outcomes, what does good leadership comprise, and how do you develop it?

The reasons why we are doing this project are:

a) To extricate how leadership correlates with business outcomes for scale-ups
b) To evaluate how the coaching (and specifically, "The HorizonMethod") contributes to developing good leadership

We would like to ask you some questions, set by our research team (which comprises members from H37 and Cranfield University).  

The interviews and surveys we conduct will inform our findings, which will be used to create the Lead or Lose research report(s) and as part of an evaluation of the impact of the HorizonMethod for coaching, as deployed through the Horizon37 coaching programmes.  

We will cover data consent at the end, and you can select if you want any answers to be anonymous; all responses will only be shared with the research team and will not be included in the report unless you have explicitly told us so.

To clarify the context, we are talking about senior leadership (usually by the founder CEO and Exec team) in a scale-up.

We define leadership as: "causing results through others", i.e. NOT "doing skills" like technology development, financial modelling or video marketing.
