“Run with it – Navigating a business through a Crisis”

The Commercial Transport Academy (CTA) is running an eight-month capacity development flagship coaching programme supported by USAID. The “Run With It” coaching programme is focused on women-owned businesses in the transport industry and transport business-related services. This Programme is open to all South African Women from all race categories.

Coaching and networks are cited as critical challenges related to the growth of women-owned businesses in the world.  The “Run With It” coaching programme is designed to support the unique needs of early-stage and high growth-oriented women-led and owned businesses. This will be achieved by using a  globally recognised toolbox, which will enable the entrepreneurs to make decisions and take action. In addition, through its voluntary coaching platform, it will provide the Entrepreneurs with access to a coach who will coach the entrepreneur and a business coach to assist with various key areas relating to a business. Each coaching relationship will be tailored to the unique needs and objectives of the entrepreneur.
