Dear Members & Guests:
We are very pleased to have as our guest speaker this month Evan Glassett, President of Evergreen Team Concepts a provider of business and personal training, business consulting and leadership seminars. Join Evan Glassett a professional development coach for a frank conversation on how to effectively create stronger teams in your business.
Evan will speak on the topic- Training as an asset. How is training in the tech world different from training in the non-tech world? Understanding how to train people based on their abilities and personalities rather than one size fits all.
One of the greatest challenges that we face as business owners is knowing where to put our money for maximum value. In a down economy it's our first gut reaction to cut the "luxury" of training however most successful business will tell you that it's the best time to train to keep your work force at "Peak" performance and get them ready for when the economy changes. The next challenge is knowing how to train and lead your team. This small workshop will give you a practical tool to help you discover how to train your team and give you new insight in why you should be investing in your team rather than cutting their budgets.
This will be a popular meeting so please register by clicking below as soon as possible.

We encourage you to show up early (11:30AM) to network.
