2023 Learning & Accountability Groups!

WISE is offering three Learning & Accountability Groups in 2023 to help you reach your goals with strategic planning (Feb 2023), creating great marketing content (March 2023), and leveraging video for your small business (April 2023)!

To kick off your New Year with a solid plan, we will start with Strategic Planning for Your Small Business.

Sessions start February 9th. Register here!

What is a Learning & Accountability Group? These groups are expert led and discussion-based peer groups focused on a specific topic.

Logistics & format

Groups meet via Zoom and are limited to ~8 participants. Each group is four weeks in length and will meet weekly for 1 hour. Sessions are expert led and lightly facilitated; it’s a blend of about 50% new information and 50% sharing and feedback from the group. Come ready to engage – keep your cameras and mics on if you can.

The goal is to both learn new concepts and take action. To that end, we’re including an accountability component. See below for topics covered in each group.

Eligibility & how to register

To be eligible, you must be in business and able to attend all 4 sessions virtually. Spots are very limited so register early!
