Sept 14

Mastermind Group Series 1.0

Purpose of a Mastermind GroupA mastermind group brings together a small group of people who are motivated to take their business to a new level.

The desired outcome of the 8-week study is to increase your awareness and understanding of how to work ON your business to help it grow in a productive, successful way.

As we move through each lesson, we will bring together our ideas and opinions to shape and mold our understanding of the material in a way that is far superior to simply reading a book on our own. We will be combining all of our minds to becoming a master mind.

Public Policy Update from the desk of Bryan Fox, VP of Public Policy

State budget considerations continue, and local government operations are back in full swing with the return of a County Commissioners meeting Monday night and Joint Board of Commissioners/Board of Education meeting Tuesday morning. As additional issues persist, we will keep you updated but remember that many of our priorities are shared by the US Chamber and NC Chamber at the federal and state level respectively, consider getting involved locally by helping fill a vacancy on City & County Boards & Commissions, and continue to reach out anytime.
