The Advanced Field Manager Bootcamp is a practical experiential professional development program that equips field managers with high-level knowledge, skills and strategies to build credibility, trust and commitment with experienced franchisees. Participants must have completed the Foundation program so they have a grounding in the models on which this course is based.

Who should attend?

This program is designed for field managers looking to build upon the tools and skills they acquired during the Foundation Field Manager Bootcamp program.

Why attend?

At FRI we regard field management as a profession, and as such, field managers need to undergo ongoing professional development to keep their skills sharp so they can support franchisees at a higher level. In addition to building on the concepts gained in the Foundation Bootcamp, the advanced program provides fresh insights into the mechanics behind certain techniques and introduces participants to new and exciting tools and models to enhance their credibility and effectiveness.

How it is conducted?

The Advanced Field Manager Bootcamp is conveniently conducted using the Zoom platform over five separate two-hour sessions, spread over two weeks. Participants are expected to engage fully in all sessions with their camera and microphone on. There are also some personal reflection exercises to be completed between sessions. Sessions include a presentation of concepts and breakout discussion groups. Discussion notes are often circulated back to participants who are also encouraged to maintain an action learning plan that captures key insights and commitments. Places are limited to maintain an interactive, high-quality learning environment.

What will you learn?

Participants in the Advanced Bootcamp learn the following:

• Dig deeper into familiar models so you understand the mechanisms behind how they work
• Introduce new concepts and help you identify how to use these to improve your effectiveness
• Help you to understand how the models fit together and integrate them into your own practice
• Review important concepts to help you drive the profitability and sales of your franchisees
• Create opportunities where you can share your experiences and insights with your peers
• Encourage you to revisit existing goals and set further meaningful goals and action plans
• Keep the learning process challenging, engaging and enjoyable.

The Franchise Council of Australia has accredited the Advanced Field Manager Bootcamp as part of their Certified Franchise Executive Program [CFE] with 320 education credits for CFE registrants who attend.

Who leads the program?

The program is led by Greg Nathan, Founder of the Franchise Relationships Institute.
