Valley Wide - Small Business Week

Each month we offer a workshop, seminar or training opportunity for entrepreneurs, small business owners and employers in the North Okanagan. Currently all our workshops are hosted virtually using Zoom.

Small business owners from across the Okanagan-Shuswap region have the chance to participate in three days of development workshops and connect with peers from across the valley as Community Futures hosts a virtual version of Small Business Week events.Tuesday / Oct 19, 2021 - Doing Business In Uncertain TimesSponsored by BDO9:30 Welcome9:35-10:50 Business During Stressful Times / Kim Rai11:00-11:30 Leading me, so I can lead you / <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/robertasawatzky/?originalSubdomain=ca" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Roberta Sawatzky</a>11:30-12:15 Lunch / Networking12:15 -1:15 The dark art of pricing / <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewdavidgregson/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Andrew Gregson</a>12:15-1:15 Succession Planning / Brian Huck &amp; Jordan Kennedy12:15-1:15 Leading Resilience / <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/lauracookeconsulting/?originalSubdomain=ca" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Laura Cooke</a>1:30-1:45 Wrap-up / NetworkingWednesday / Oct 20, 2021 - Recruitment &amp; RetentionSponsored by WCG Services9:30 Welcome9:35-10:15 Expand Your Talent Pool: Introduction to Engaging Student Talent for Small Organizations / <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/dawnsheldon/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Dawn Sheldon</a>, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessiguercio/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Jessi Guercio</a>, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/mindygobbi/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Mindy Gobbi</a>10:15-11:30 Workplace communication / Chelan Cotter11:30-12:30 Lunch / Networking12:30 -1:30 Top hiring mistakes / <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/devera-nybo/?originalSubdomain=ca" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">DeVera Nybo</a>12:30-1:30 Why hire persons with disabilities / <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/jess-roebuck-6896736a/?originalSubdomain=ca" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Jess Roebuck</a>12:30-1:30 Recruiting Session / <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/eticws-kelly-twist/?originalSubdomain=ca" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Kelly Twist</a>, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/sherylbrownbc/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Sheryl Brown</a>1:30-1:45 Wrap-up / NetworkingThursday / Oct 21, 2021 - Entrepreneurship &amp; InnovationSponsored by VantageOne9:30 Welcome9:35-10:35 Economic forecast - BC / <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/bryan-yu-econ/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Bryan Yu</a>10:135-11:30 Economic forecast - Canada / <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/pcleroux/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Pierre Cleroux</a>11:30-12:30 Lunch / Networking12:30 -1:30 Opportunity Exploration / <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/crystal-flaman/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Crystal Flaman</a>12:30-1:30 Caring For Our Mental Health at Work During Covid / <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/tami-muhlert-0aa5b1b9/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Tami Muhlert</a>12:30-1:30 Doing business in difficult times – Pivot or Persevere? / <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/bradycalancie/?originalSubdomain=ca" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Brady Calancie </a> 1:30-1:45 Wrap-up / Networking
