Event Description: FastTrac® GrowthVenture™ (formerly Planning) focuses on helping entrepreneurs to sharpen their strategic thinking skills as they plan for growth and build sustainable businesses. Participants assess where their business is now, explore opportunities for growth, and apply strategic thinking skills through the business planning process.

Developed by entrepreneurs for entrepreneurs, GrowthVenture™ focuses on these specific tools and skills for entrepreneurs:

Thinking more strategically and critically in all aspects of the business

Focusing on the planning process – a business plan to grow the business and increase revenue and profitability

Reflecting on how they really want to manage the work, highlighting proven leadership strategies for healthy organizational management

Structuring or operating the business with more efficiency

Realigning the strategic goals and the critical functions of the business

Outlining specific action steps that will be taken to achieve their business' vision and strategy

The program is grounded in the proven, proprietary business-planning process used in FastTrac® programs. Through readings and research, activities and action steps, peer-to-peer interaction, coaching, and facilitated discussions, each participating entrepreneur will work on key aspects of assessing where their business is now and exploring opportunities for sustainability and growth.

Most FastTrac® graduates experience accelerated growth within two years of completing the program.

The course is ten weeks; one workshop per week that will begin March 28, 2006. We anticipate between 16 and 24 participants. We plan to offer GrowthVenture™ once in 2006. We will market GrowthVenture™ at two FastTrac® 101 events, informal networking receptions for business owners interested in taking the course. FastTrac® alumni will be available to answer questions and share the impact that FastTrac® has made on their businesses. FastTrac® 101 will be held January 17, 2006 from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. at the Chamber offices. The second event will be held in early March.
