FAQ

What people
often ask.

What CEOs, co-founders and senior leaders typically want to know before a first conversation — ordered by program. If your question isn’t here: just send a mail.

What is what?

What is the Growth Program?

Our main format for leadership teams that want to accelerate growth systematically — as a 100-day sprint or a 12-month engagement. We translate your strategy into a One Page Growth Plan and work with the team on its growth themes in a quarterly rhythm, with clear priorities and visible progress.

What are Growth Circles?

Curated peer groups of CEOs and founders from non-competing companies. Every 4–8 weeks, a facilitated half-day in which real growth themes are worked through with sparring depth — not a networking event, not a talk format.

What are the Espresso Shots?

Our monthly Klartext newsletter for CEOs and founders: one concrete growth theme, readable in three minutes, with no buzzword bingo. It goes out on the first business day of each month. Free, with no up-sell.

General

How is JUSTGROW different from a classic strategy consultancy?

We don’t deliver 200-slide studies. We work as outside sparring at your team’s side, translate strategy into the everyday and step back the moment the system runs on its own. We’re not the explainer, we’re the mobilizer — a Growth Advisor, not a coach, not a classic consultant. Maximum output, minimal consultant footprint.

What size of company is JUSTGROW made for?

Typically ambitious scale-ups and Mittelstand companies between 30 and 600 staff — organisations growing fast enough that the leadership team can lose clarity. Smaller and larger engagements we discuss in a first conversation.

What languages do you work in?

German and English. Hybrid language settings (e.g. international C-levels) are no problem. The in-house programs adapt to the language of the leadership team.

Where is JUSTGROW active?

Our focus is the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland). We travel on-site for in-house workshops. Sparring sessions, reviews and Circles run hybrid or remote, depending on the format.

Growth Program

How much time does my team have to invest in the Growth Program?

After a structured onboarding, the leadership team works with the Growth Advisor one to two days per quarter — depending on intensity. Between the workshops, focus calls with the management keep the rhythm going. The program replaces more meetings than it creates.

What does a Growth Program engagement cost?

The 100-day sprint runs on a fixed price. The 12-month partner as a retainer. You get both broken down transparently after the second conversation — no day-rate gambling.

What if we’ve had enough after 100 days?

Then that’s a good outcome. The sprint is designed as a self-contained building block. An extension is optional, not expected.

Growth Circles

Who decides who ends up in a Growth Circle?

JUSTGROW curates. We look at maturity, a breadth of industries, no direct competitors in one group — and a comparable depth of responsibility.

How much time does a Circle take?

3–4 hours per session, every 4–8 weeks. Plus around an hour of preparation and follow-up. Across a quarter: about three-quarters of a day.

Is there a minimum term for the Circles?

A Circle typically runs for 6 or 12 months. Early cancellation is explained in detail in a first conversation — we don’t lock anyone in who isn’t convinced.

How is a Growth Circle different from Vistage / EO / YPO?

We’re smaller, more theme-specific and more sharply focused on concrete growth questions — with facilitation that brings both strategy and operator experience. Some of our members are part of those too. The two don’t rule each other out.

Growth Espresso Shots

What do the Espresso Shots cost?

Nothing. Free, for good. No hidden up-sell, no paywall, no premium tier. If the subscription turns into working together, we talk about that separately.

How often does a Shot arrive?

Exactly once a month — on the first business day. No special editions, no bonus mail, no birthday send.

What if I want to unsubscribe?

One click in the footer of the mail. No questions back, no confirmation loop, no follow-up sequence.
