Overview
The Entrepreneurial Adventure Group Coaching Program is a 60-day course for strengthening your mindset for entrepreneurial success. It is not focused on the specifics of any industry or the nuances of sales, accounting, or product development. The goal of this course is to help you strengthen your mindset to successfully open and sustain your own business.
You will not be told what to think, but you will be challenged to think.
This course consists of prework reflection exercises and guided small group discussions. There will be a total of 4 bi-weekly two-hour group discussions and two one-on-one conversations with Dan Coughlin. You can anticipate a time commitment of between 15 and 20 hours for the entire program. Of course, the more you pour into it, the more you will get out of it.
The small group discussions will be on Zoom videoconferencing. This program will run from approximately January 15 – March 15, 2023.
Fee: The Pay-It-Forward Payment Approach
There is no financial fee for this program. However, commitment is an expectation of this program. The other expectation is that each participant will work to help other entrepreneurs develop the mindset for sustainable success.
