Executive Webinar Series: Optimising a growth strategy within the Support at Home market

Executive webinar series overview

Regulatory change in the Home Care Program has kept many organisations in reactive mode, limiting their ability to develop distinctive market positions. As the sector transitions into a more structured and competitive Support at Home environment, executive teams are seeking clarity on how to grow – and where to invest. This two-part executive series explores the real business-building options in this emerging market, grounded in strategy, structure, and scale-readiness.

Each session focuses on a different pathway: the first on organic growth and the second on mergers and acquisitions. Across both, we focus on what differentiates viable opportunities, how to test readiness, and what frameworks executives can use to prioritise action. Register for one webinar, or register for both at a discounted price.

 

Webinar 1 – Organic Growth

This session explores how organisations can build a viable business by strengthening internal capability and differentiating their market approach. It addresses the prerequisites for growth, the real cost of customer acquisition, and how to design scalable service models. Participants will examine segmentation strategies, capability depth, and how to align enabling systems and structures to support sustainable expansion.

The outcomes are:

  • Identify viable pathways for organic growth in the Support at Home market
  • Understand how to differentiate through service model, customer segmentation, or capability depth
  • Evaluate the cost-to-serve and customer acquisition implications of different growth channels
  • Assess how internal enablers (people, systems, structure) influence readiness to scale

 

Webinar 2 – Merger and Acquisition activity

This session unpacks current merger and acquisition trends in the home care sector, providing a strategic lens on when and how to consider acquisition or partnership. It covers key drivers of consolidation, common deal structures, and the often-overlooked risks in integration and cultural fit. Practical insights are shared on how to assess strategic alignment, manage due diligence, and build an informed pathway for growth through external means.

The outcomes are:

  • Understand current trends in merger and acquisition activity across the home care sector
  • Analyse different transaction types and their strategic rationale (mergers, acquisitions, partnerships)
  • Learn how to assess strategic fit, cultural integration, and operational risks
  • Develop a high-level roadmap for considering or approaching merger and acquisition as a growth option
