Peer Advisory Groups - This new program will be piloted over the summer and we already have our first group in place! The group was established earlier this Spring in response to a call from our nonprofit leaders for peer coaching and more meaningful networking opportunities. The Peer Advisory Group model has been designed with the help of our Executive Partner, Shelley Smith, owner of Premier Rapport, a national business consulting firm. Shelley will also serve as Facilitator of the Groups.
