The Grow Mighty System
A system, not a series of chats.
Grow Mighty is a structured business growth system for owner-led New Zealand businesses with 5–50 staff, based in the central North Island.
The system gives every engagement the same structure: direction first, then the four pillars, in 90-day sprints with agreed priorities and tracked numbers. There’s still room for what comes up in a real business in a real week. But the work always comes back to the plan.
How the parts fit.
Direction sits above everything. People, Profit, Product and Process are the four pillars. The Owner is at the centre.

The owner at the centre
We work on the business, and on you.
A business can’t stop relying on its owner unless the owner’s role changes too.
So alongside the four pillars we look at how you spend your time, what you hand over and to whom, and how you lead. Early on you’ll complete a DISC profile, so we both understand how you work and where the team needs to complement you.
The rhythm
About three hours a month in sessions.
Working session
Two hours, monthly. We work on the sprint priorities together.
Progress session
One hour, monthly. The numbers, what’s done, what’s stuck.
Short check-ins
Between sessions, to keep things moving.
Planning Session
Each quarter. Review the sprint, set the next one.
Most sessions are in person. Sprint by sprint, with no 12-month lock-in.
A 90-day sprint, shown · sample
Three priorities. A number for each.
A sample first sprint for a made-up 18-person engineering firm. We’ll replace it with a real one when a client agrees to share theirs.
Profit
Know the margin on every job
Job costing set up on every job over $5,000, reviewed monthly.
Number: gross margin by job.
People
Hand over quoting
The workshop manager quotes everything under $20,000, with a pricing guide.
Number: quotes the owner touches.
Direction
A plan the team has seen
A one-page plan, and a weekly 30-minute supervisors’ meeting against it.
Number: decisions escalated to the owner.
How we use AI
We use AI behind the scenes for preparation, notes and reporting. That keeps more of each session for you. The listening, the thinking and the advice come from a person.
What it isn’t
- Not generic coaching with no defined outcome
- Not a course you work through alone
- Not a consultant’s report that sits in a drawer
Questions about the system.
What is the Grow Mighty System?
The Grow Mighty System has six parts. Direction is set first. Four pillars follow: People (team, structure, accountability), Profit (margins, pricing, financial discipline), Product (what is sold, to whom, and how it is marketed and sold) and Process (systems and repeatability). The Owner sits at the centre, because the system works on the owner’s role as well as the business.
How does working with Grow Mighty run month to month?
Each month a Grow Mighty client has a two-hour working session, a one-hour progress session and short check-ins. Work is planned in 90-day sprints, with a Planning Session at the start of each quarter. Most sessions are in person.
What is a 90-day sprint at Grow Mighty?
A 90-day sprint is one quarter of focused work on a small number of agreed priorities, each with a number that shows progress. At the end of the sprint the results are reviewed and the next sprint is planned.
How much time does Grow Mighty take for the owner?
About three hours a month in sessions, plus the agreed actions between them. The purpose of the work is to give the owner time back.
Does Grow Mighty use AI?
Grow Mighty uses AI behind the scenes for preparation, notes and reporting, which keeps more session time for the owner. The listening, thinking and advice come from a person.
