Small Business Roundtable

Topic: Leadership & Decision-Making: Effective leadership skills for small business owners

Join us for an empowering morning at our Women Business Owner’s Roundtable.

The facilitator will share 1-3 high-level leadership frameworks with attendees to ground our discussion. After a very brief explanation of the framework(s), the facilitator will invite attendees to reflect individually on their own leadership ‘peaks’ and ‘valleys’ to distill lessons from their lived experience. Majority of the round table will be devoted to discussing key insights on leadership and decision-making as a small business owner so that attendees can learn from each other.

As a member-focused initiative, this roundtable offers a unique 90-minute format expertly facilitated with timely topics important to small business owners with dedicated time for networking, member introductions, topical discussions, and a robust Q&A session. Held at the Colorado Technical University, this event promises a conducive environment for meaningful connections. Attendance is free for members and $20 for non-members. Seize this opportunity to connect, learn, and thrive with fellow women business owners in our dynamic community. Register now for a morning of growth and collaboration.

By the end of this round table, attendees will be able to:

1. Reflect on their own leadership ‘peaks’ and ‘valleys’ to distill lessons from experience

2. Share leadership insights with peers

3. Learn from others’ insights
