Hi folks,
As you can see below, the Chamber is offering five training sessions on a variety of topics that are of great importance to Small Business Owners: computer technology, communication, organization, strategic planning and interpersonal training. There is a fee for these trainings, but BBRP businesses can get in at the Chamber rate.
We are all obviously incredibly busy, but I think something that is often forgotten in our hectic world is the need for professional development. All too often, small businesses atrophy, fail to grow or close because their owners and managers have not made the time to take a step back and examine areas in which their skills need updates or improvements. These five areas that the Chamber is offering trainings on are critical to continued business success, and I want to encourage you all to attend any seminars that you think may be appropriate.
