How effective are your communication skills? How can you and your co-workers improve how you communicate?
Effective communication is key to business success. It enables collaboration and persuasion while also preventing unnecessary conflict. It is important to remember that being a good communicator takes continuous effort, and even the most effective individuals can benefit from periodic reviews of key concepts.
Join us for a discussion on the fundamentals of strategic & professional communication on Wednesday, March 18th 11:00 am - 12:00 pm at the Whitewater University Innovation Center. This event is free and open to the public.

Startup Financial Essentials

When you are working on your business plan or applying for funding, financial statements are crucial. You simply cannot justify your business without a solid bottom line. Investors, lenders, & grant committees need to know the numbers that illustrate business growth. Investors need to see the return on their investment and lenders need to see that you will be able to repay your loan.
