 Premier Program: Peer-to-Peer Mentoring Roundtables Minimize

KWBC's peer-to-peer mentoring roundtable program is recognized as one of our premier business development programs. These fee-based roundtables are facilitated by highly-qualified, experienced facilitators. Participants, limited to 10 women per roundtable, meet for three hours monthly for:

  • Guidance on understanding financial statements
  • Assistance with developing a strategic marketing plan
  • Understanding staffing needs and issues
  • Sales growth strategies
  • Creating and keeping good customer relationships 

Topics addressed include organization, marketing, public relations, cash flow, employees and strategic planning among others. Participants are grouped with non-competing companies outside their industry by:

  • Size of business (revenues and employees)
  • Length of time in business
  • Growth goals

Our goal is for women business owners to come in with issues and concerns, and leave with clear and practical ideas and solutions.

Our highly successful existing roundtables currently have openings.  For more information, please contact jmathews@kansaswbc.com.

Roundtable testimonial:
"Joining the mentoring roundtable at the Kansas Women's Business Center immediately provided me with resources I could not imagine. Six women business owners bringing six business experiences and expertise to share in one room. We share our growth strategies and company improvement ideas once a month for three hours, and there is more information in those three hours than I could ever obtain on my own. Measurable growth strategies for my company using our shared pool of information is one of my goals. The friendship and exchange are immeasurable."
