How can you build on your strengths, grow your business and make more money? It’s all about mindset!

As a business owner, you need to have your head in the game to stay competitive. Having an “entrepreneurial mindset” can help you make good decisions, be confident in your abilities and plan for change.

Women’s Enterprise Centre (WEC) and Northern Development Initiative Trust (NDIT) have partnered to help business owners in the north assess and improve their entrepreneurial mindset to realize their business potential.

Through this partnership, 100 Entrepreneurial Mindset Grants will be provided to Northern entrepreneurs – women and men – so they can develop the thought and behavior that drives business growth.

ABOUT THE ENTREPRENEURIAL MINDSET GRANT

Mindset Grants are limited to 25 per Northern Development region (Cariboo-Chilcotin Lillooet Region, Prince George Region, Northeast Region, Northwest Region).

ABOUT THE ENTREPRENEURIAL MINDSET DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

Organizations that identify as “entrepreneurial” have been shown to succeed at a much faster pace in the market with significantly increased capital investment, higher profit margins and greater productivity. This comprehensive program helps business owners develop the mindset to drive business growth and the economic health of Northern BC. It includes:

Your personalized EMP™ assessment
The Entrepreneurial Mindset Profile™ (EMP) is an exceptional resource that provides clear insight into entrepreneurial strengths and specific opportunities for development.

Having this baseline understanding helps to focus on developing innovation, creativity and growth leadership. The assessment takes about 20 minutes – complete yours by July 17 and be automatically entered to win a $100 Visa gift card.
