Profit Margin Expansion | February 3 - 4, 2026

Profit Margin Expansion | 2 Day Workshop

In an era of rising costs, intense competition, and complex customer demands, the organizations that win are the ones that master operational discipline, pricing power, and cash velocity. This workshop equips leaders with the systems, tools, and strategic levers to build a resilient, high-margin business without sacrificing growth or customer experience.

The Profit Margin Expansion Workshop is a deep, hands-on, business-level program that blends strategic pricing, portfolio optimization, operational excellence, and working-capital mastery. Participants learn to identify where profit is being quietly eroded, where cash becomes trapped in the operational cycle, and how to design an engine that continuously expands profitability.

Through a series of immersive modules, leaders gain clarity on:

• What truly drives margin—and what silently destroys it
• How to build pricing power, increase variable cost productivity, and elevate revenue quality
• How to differentiate portfolios and product mixes for value creation
• How to eliminate “Cash Traps” hiding inside operations
• How to accelerate cashflow and expand margins using a 30/60/90 Cash Unlock Plan

This workshop goes far beyond traditional finance training. It is a transformation of how leaders think about value, cost, complexity, and financial performance. Participants leave with a full diagnostic of their margin and cash health, a value-based pricing architecture, a prioritized set of margin levers, and a practical roadmap for improving both profit and liquidity within 90 days.

This is the workshop for business leaders who want:

• Higher margins without raising operating pressure
• Greater cash flow without cost-cutting fatigue
• Smarter pricing instead of reactive discounting
• A simplified portfolio that delivers more profit with less effort
• A future-state margin engine that becomes self-sustaining

By the end of the program, leaders will have:

• A Margin Expansion Playbook
• A Cash Flow Map and Cash Health Index Score
• A refined pricing model for one core offering
• A portfolio optimization plan for margin mix shifts
• A 30/60/90 Cash Unlock Plan
• A Future-State Cash Flow Optimization Plan

This is not theoretical. This is applied, enterprise-grade margin transformation - taught by experts who have led Fortune 50 companies successfully through the last 2 major recessions. Your leaders will walk out with actionable strategies ready to implement the very next day.

Who It’s For

This workshop is designed for executives, leaders, and managers who are responsible for profitability, operational performance, and strategic growth. It is ideal for those who want to take a hands-on, practical approach to expanding margins and accelerating cash flow.

This workshop is not theoretical—it’s for leaders who want practical strategies, diagnostic tools, and a 30/60/90-day action plan to immediately protect and expand margins while improving cash flow.

The Experience

This is an immersive, hands-on executive workshop that goes far beyond theory. Over two intensive days, participants engage in interactive modules, real-world simulations, and diagnostic exercises designed to uncover hidden margin leaks, accelerate cash flow, and create actionable strategies.

Participants will:

• Diagnose margin erosion across pricing, product mix, operations, and cost structures
• Map cash traps in the operational cycle and quantify their impact
• Apply tools like the Cash Health Index and Cash Trap Map to their own business
• Design a Future-State Margin Engine that integrates pricing, operational efficiency, and cash velocity
• Build a 30/60/90-day action plan for immediate margin improvement and cash acceleration
• Collaborate with peers in scenario-based labs, portfolio optimization exercises, and real-world simulations

The workshop is highly experiential, blending:

• Strategic discussion and executive insights
• Hands-on diagnostic work and team exercises
• Live simulations of operational bottlenecks and pricing scenarios
• Collaborative problem-solving with peers from diverse industries

By the end, participants will leave with clarity, confidence, and a ready-to-implement margin and cash acceleration plan, along with the tools and frameworks to continuously monitor, optimize, and scale margin growth across the business.
