Operations Management

80-90% of new businesses fail within the first five years, the vast majority in one. Most commonly they fail not because of a lack of inspiration or intelligence, but for lack of skills in recognizing and overcoming conflicts.

Conflict and our inability to manage it can cripple our personal and professional lives and keep us from achieving our smallest goals and biggest dreams. Conflict can range from problematic communication between partners to difficulties dealing with bureaucracy to failure to understand and agree on a concrete plan. All are obstacles that can be overcome.

Aegis' Operations Management seminar is a 6-month course designed for anyone who wants to learn to overcome conflict in an intelligent and organized way.
