Description
Sponsored By: TD Bank Charitable Foundation
Entrepreneurs and business owners, are you challenged to keep up with the daily routines in your business, knowing you need to do more to focus on growth, but uncertain what to do? Growth Wheel is a hands-on, action-oriented program designed to help entrepreneurs at all stages overcome their barriers to growth. All businesses from pre-venture start-ups to established enterprises, must address four key challenges. They need an attractive business concept, lasting customer relations, profitable operations, and a strong organization. Attendees will participate in a hands-on workshop introducing the Growth Wheel toolkit. This workshop introduces the Growth Wheel Framework and participants will take home a 360 degree tool, worksheets with key decisions, and a 30-60-90 Day Action Plan.
