SUMMARY:ActionCOACH ONE Recession-Resistant Business: Prepare Your Business to Weather the Storms
DESCRIPTION:While the doom and gloom of a possible recession is a recent hot topic of conversation in small business circles\, we at ActionCOACH ONE know there are ways you can prepare your business to face the storm head-on. \nWe’ve seen it in many small businesses with which we work: the owner working too much in the business\, no backup plan for how the business would run without them. and no idea how to control business growth. The truth is\, if you’re working 60\, 70\, or even 80 hours in the business every week\, if you’ve got to step away for a moment and lead\, your leadership is a challenge. \nWe guarantee you’ll walk away with at least a handful of simple ways that you can get your business firing on all cylinders\, stronger than ever.

SUMMARY:Images of Aging in Elizabeth Strout’s Novel “Olive Kitteridge”
DESCRIPTION:Rarely\, it seems to me\, does our culture offer stories on aging that respect the joys\, the assaults\, the tedium that life can throw our way–and the wonderful and terrible ways we can respond to it all.  Too often the elderly are reduced to a trope–the befuddled elder\, the eternally patient and smiling grandparent\, the small\, fragile aunt. Strout’s book gives us Olive\, a flawed yet compelling woman who takes us into layers of aging with a strident determination that\, though doomed to achieve less than she hopes\, allows us to come out of the book\, out of her world\, with a renewed appreciation for being human. Strout ends the novel with the words\, “It baffled her–the world.  She did not want to leave it yet.”  Most of us\, I think\, would agree.  (Course led by Donald Lanctot\, retired English teacher and befuddled elder). \nOct. 11\, 13\, 18. 20. Also offered via Zoom.

SUMMARY:Employee Development as a Key to Attracting and Retaining Top Performers
DESCRIPTION:Changing times call for changing venues\, and we would like to thank Indiana Tech for donating the use of their space for our upcoming Fall and Spring members meetings! \nPlease join us for a presentation from Diane Winn\, Professional Certified Coach.\n*Registration is required in advance. \nEmployee Development as a Key to Attracting and Retaining Top Performers \nThe 2020 census noted a new trend.

Connecting to that theme\, following the Great Resignation\, more employees are taking the time to find a position with a company that has a culture in which they are able to grow\, both personally and professionally. Building on Becky Beckman’s presentation on Company Culture at the Fall Kickoff\, Diane Winn will walk us through the main elements in creating and implementing a development plan. \nDiane Winn\, PCC \nA certified leadership coach\, mentor\, facilitator\, and speaker\, Diane Winn has over 20 years of success providing the support leaders and executives need to reach their potential. As President of Through Eagles Eyes\, an organizational development business\, she understands firsthand the responsibilities and challenges leaders undertake\, particularly women in business.
