The Black Women’s Business Retreat has been designed for experienced business professionals who have a clear vision of how they would like to launch, expand, or scale their business or who wish to grow as industry leaders. Participants will be joining a network of highly capable and established influencers and should, therefore, be able to articulate how they will contribute to the group’s body of expertise.
In preparation for this experience, participants will engage in six once-monthly webinars to begin working through some of the key areas in which black women tend to struggle when considering the next step in their business goals. Topics will include developing a business plan, intercultural communication, sourcing raw materials, emerging markets, ethical business practices, social media for business, and wellness practices. Participants are expected to attend and fully participate in the webinars leading up to the travel date in order to adequately prepare for the experience.
