Bring resources that can help owners understand the how’s and why’s of business. Create a support system of mentors that can first, show and tell, then walk and collaborate, side by side with entrepreneurs and business owners alike. Forge partnerships with organizations that have programs already in place and have the space for our community to be a part of. In doing so it helps bring all of our communities together.
CHAMBER MENTORSHIP PROGRAM
CHAMBER MENTORSHIP PROGRAM
Our program allows for small business owners and business executives who are thriving and succeeding in their industry to be mentors. Their mentorship will help entrepreneurs and business owners, navigate resources, reach their potential, and grow in their passion. Our mentors will be the go-to to connect our community with resources within their industry; What do they need to know, who they need to know, certifications needed, and what their resumes need to look like for their industry. All in all, our mentors will provide the best practices in their industry.
How does the program work?
Whether you're a chamber member or not, seek a mentor that best fits you and/or your business.
Contact them directly by clicking on their name.
They will hold a Navigation Consultation with you to help navigate you to the best mentor, resources, and programs to help you where you are.
Once you receive the help you need and seek, we encourage you to join the chamber and pay it forward.
Is there a cost for the program?
Of course not. We are ALL here to help our community grow and connect and become stronger members of the broader global community.
