Webinar – Growing with Purpose: Applying the Five Stages of Business Growth to Control System Integrators (Video On Demand)
Control system integrators face a unique business journey—one shaped not only by technology and client demands, but also by the complex evolution of their own organizations. In this exclusive Exotek webinar, we explore how the classic Five Stages of Small Business Growth model can be applied to the CSI world, helping leaders assess where their firm stands today—and what’s required to take it to the next level.
Whether you’re fighting for survival, planning for sustainable growth, or managing the complexity of a maturing integration firm, this session will help you:
- Recognize which of the five growth stages your firm is currently in—Existence, Survival, Success, Take-Off, or Resource Maturity
- Understand the shifting leadership, systems, staffing, and strategy needs at each phase of growth
- Avoid common missteps that cause many CSI firms to plateau—or worse, retreat—when scaling
- Apply practical takeaways specific to control system integrators, including delegation, project scalability, and client diversification
This is not a theoretical conversation—it’s a practical guide for CSI leaders ready to grow their firm with greater clarity, confidence, and control.
