What is the Predictable Success Growth Model

Les McKeown first recognized recurring patterns of achieving sustainable growth during his 15 years as a serial entrepreneur, during which he was involved in the launch of over 40 businesses and not-for-profits.

Later, as the co-founder of one of the world's first independent incubation businesses, Les realized that the patterns of 'early stage' success were intimately connected to second-stage and subsequent growth. Over time, he 'connected the dots' across the entire lifecycle of all organizations, naming it the 'Predictable Success Growth Model'.

The Predictable Success Growth Model has three main components:

The Predictable Success Lifecycle

Every business and not-for-profit cycles through seven stages of growth. In your work with Les, you'll learn what stage you are in, what stage you want to be in, and precisely what you need to do to get there.

The Predictable Success Scalability Matrix

In order to achieve sustainable growth and scalability, there are 13 'Imperatives' - specific skills and behaviors that together, dictate where you are on the Predictable Success Lifecycle.

Les will help you identify which of these specific Imperatives you need to work on as part of your roadmap to Predictable Success.

The Predictable Success Leadership Styles

Every sustainably successful organization needs four types of leader at different stages in its growth, each bringing their own skills, perspectives - and challenges. With Les McKeown as your growth consultant, you'll not only find out which type of leader you are, but what other leadership types you need to develop and encourage in your organization.

Meet Les McKeown.

Les McKeown is the Founder and CEO of Predictable Success.

Les first began to recognize recurring growth patterns early in his career as a serial entrepreneur. In addition to being involved in the launch of more than 40 companies before he was 35, he was at the same time a founding elder in a fast-growing church, while serving on the board of a number of charities and not-for-profits.

Les used the experience he gained during that time to co-found one of the first business incubators in the world, which he and his then business partner developed over a decade into a multi-national consulting company that advised on the creation and growth of hundreds of organizations worldwide.

Struck by the similarity of issues faced by all growing organizations, Les began to codify his understanding of the repeating patterns of growth, publishing his Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestseller "Predictable Success: Getting Your Organization On the Growth Track - and Keeping It There" in 2010, followed in 2012 by "The Synergist: How to Lead Your Team to Predictable Success".

Les is a trusted advisor to fast-growth SMEs and thriving not-for-profits as well as Fortune 500 companies and a number of the largest government agencies in the world.
