Business Planning for Development

Description

Good businesses plan in advance - not just months but years in advance.
This course will teach you how to put together a robust and coherent plan. We'll give you our business plan template and we'll show you how to use it properly. We'll cover the pitfalls that trip most people up when putting a plan together and make sure you avoid them.
