Managing a successful business requires a diverse skill set and the ability to respond quickly to ever-changing market conditions.  The Women’s Business Mentoring Circle was created for women entrepreneurs to help and support each other. Women have a unique ability to impart their business expertise and share lessons learned with others.  Everyone can benefit from a good support system and nothing is more personally rewarding than mentoring.

What

The Women's Business Mentoring Circle provides a forum for learning in a group setting. Each meeting consists of 30 minutes of open networking, a 30 minute keynote speaker (including time for questions) and 1 hour of focused, break-out mentoring in smaller groups. During the breakout, the small groups discuss various business concerns and focus on those issues that are blocking success.  Participants provide guidance, ideas and feedback to each other and help in the development of skills, techniques and perspectives.  Each small group has one or more facilitators.

Currently there are 3 groups; Marketing, Money and Procurement/Business Development. Additional groups will be borne out of the need of members. The same goes for speakers and leaders – if you request it, we will do out best to “make it happen”. Our goal is to provide meaningful opportunities for growing your business and to facilitate ongoing learning in a focused and interesting way.

Who

We are looking for dedicated women business owners who want to teach as well as learn from others. You are welcome at any point in your entrepreneurial journey – whether it be as a seasoned business owner or a new start-up.

When

Roundtables are held once a month in Boca Raton.  Visit our Upcoming Events Calendar below for specific meeting details, information about guest speakers and to register. As the group grows, we anticipate adding meetings in Broward and eventually Miami-Dade.
