Growth Factors Online

Background Info

We have identified 21 High Growth Factors that help make the rainforest the most productive, fruitful and diverse ecosystem on the planet despite having limited resources to work with. What follows are three questions per growth factor to give you an idea as to whether or not you may be using those strategies effectively. A more comprehensive, onsite assessment is available for a very modest investment.

You will learn a lot just by doing this online assessment. The questions are designed to help you discover areas that may require attention. When we receive the completed assessment, one of our certified rainforest business coaches will give you a complimentary 30 – 60 minute consultation and answer any questions you may have.
