The session
What this room is for
Growth shouldn't mean firefighting. In this hands-on session built on the Scaling Up framework trusted by 80,000+ companies, you'll score your business across the four decisions — People, Strategy, Execution and Cash — identify the weakest habits holding growth back, and build the meeting rhythm and scoreboard that turn reactive growth into intentional scale.
A quick check
Is this your company right now?
Revenue keeps climbing. Profit doesn’t move with it.
Every decision still routes through you — and the team waits.
You have a leadership team — and the company still doesn’t move as one.
Everyone is busy, yet nobody names this quarter’s top priority the same way.
Growth is being funded out of working capital, and you feel it every month.
If any of these sound familiar, the problem isn’t effort — it’s the operating system. That’s what these 4 hours fix.
Agenda
How the day runs
- 01The 3 barriers that stall every scaling businessLeadership, scalable infrastructure and market dynamics — diagnose which one is quietly capping your growth right now.

- 03People: the Functional Accountability Chart (FACe)Map every function of your business to one accountable name — and see in minutes where growth is bottlenecked on too few people.
- 04Strategy: the 3 lenses of the SWT toolStrengths, Weaknesses and market Trends — the three components to work through as you build strategy, and how they surface innovation and opportunities your competitors miss.
- 05Execution: the 4-meeting rhythmThe daily, weekly, monthly and quarterly cadence that makes execution relentlessly repeatable — so progress stops depending on the founder's push.
- 06Cash: the 7 levers of cash flowPrice, volume, cost of goods, overheads and three working-capital levers — small moves, evaluated together, that can create ten times more value from the same business.
- 07Your Scale Score + one 90-day priorityScore your company across the 4 Decisions, then leave committed to the single priority that moves it most in the next 90 days.
Results
What leadership teams say
We've run Channelplay for years and I thought we knew our numbers. The Cash Flow Story exercise that Deep helped us run in the Scaling Up workshop showed us a blind spot we'd been looking straight past. Nothing about the business changed that afternoon, but how we saw it did. Within three weeks we had released almost ₹8 crore of cash that was stuck in the business — without a new client, a loan, or a price increase.
For years every project in our studio ran through me. The accountability chart exercise showed me in about twenty minutes where that was happening and why. We also came out with many new ideas for my business using the SWT exercise. It was simple, yet amazingly powerful.
Deepinder Bedi was fantastic! The workshop he led was meaningful, engaging, and left our entire leadership team inspired and aligned.
The way he facilitated the workshop and enabled our leadership team to identify and bring out key issues led to very constructive conversations. I'd highly recommend Deep to anyone looking to build a stronger and more aligned leadership team.
Deep's session with our leadership team was truly engaging and insightful. He helped us reflect on our purpose and values as an organization, while also guiding us to communicate better and lead more effectively.
Straight answers
Questions founders ask
Who is this workshop for?
Founders, promoters and leadership-team members of growing companies — typically ₹10 crore to ₹300 crore revenue. You'll get the most out of it if you attend with at least one other leader from your company, which is why the team seat exists.
What do I leave with?
Three tangible things: your company's Scale Score across People, Strategy, Execution and Cash; the worksheets you complete during the session (your own FACe and SWT drafts); and one committed 90-day priority. The session runs 2:00 – 6:00 pm IST.
Is this a sales pitch for coaching?
No — it's a complete working session in its own right, and most attendees never buy anything further. At the end, Deep briefly shares the ways to go deeper for teams that want to (a few minutes, clearly signposted). The 4 hours are teaching and doing, not selling.
Do I need to know the Scaling Up framework beforehand?
No. The workshop assumes nothing — it introduces the four decisions (People, Strategy, Execution, Cash) and has you apply them to your own company as we go. If you've read the book, you'll go deeper; if you haven't, you won't be lost.
What's the format? Is it a lecture?
It's a live, interactive working session on Zoom — 4 hours with short breaks. You work on your own company throughout: scoring it, drafting priorities, and discussing with peers in breakouts. Cameras on, laptops open.
How does the team seat work?
One team registration covers up to six people from your company. Right after payment, the confirmation screen (and your billing page, linked in the confirmation email) has an 'Add your team' form — enter your colleagues' names and emails and each instantly receives joining details and a calendar invite.
Will I get a GST invoice?
Yes. Prices shown add 18% GST at checkout, and your confirmation email contains a link to submit your company's GSTIN and billing details — the invoice is emailed to you.
Can we pay by bank transfer, or get a proforma invoice first?
Yes. Email workshop@scalingup.in and the team will send a proforma invoice with bank details, and confirm your seat once the transfer is received.
I've already taken the free assessment on your site — what's different?
The free assessment tells you your score — and shows your company what to work on. The workshop is where you actually work on it: with your leadership team, alongside other companies wrestling with the same gaps, ending with a 90-day priority committed in front of peers. A PDF can't do any of that. (Taking the free assessment beforehand is actually great preparation.)
How should we prepare?
Nothing is required — bring your numbers in your head and your leadership team on the call. Ideally, each attendee takes the free 10-minute Scaling Readiness Assessment beforehand; it shows you exactly what to work on before you arrive, so the session lands harder.
Is there a recording?
No — this is a live working session, and the value is in doing the work with your team in the room. If you register and genuinely can't attend, write to workshop@scalingup.in and we'll move you to a future date.
What if I register and can't attend?
Write to workshop@scalingup.in — Deep's team will help you move to a future session.
Can’t make this date?
Leave your details and you’ll be first to hear when the next session opens — before it’s announced anywhere else.
