Bill Rancic in NWA at Biz Expo |
This month we look at leadership in small business. We were inspired by Bill Rancic at the NWA Business Expo and Conference in August and saw how creativity, perseverance and leadership can take you far. As you may recall, Rancic was the first winner of Donald Trump’s TV show, “The Apprentice.” Admittedly, his experience with Trump has opened doors, but Rancic’s penchant for business started early in life.
Like many entrepreneurs, Rancic hopes to share his experience and business mindset with the leaders of tomorrow. His book, “Beyond the Lemonade Stand” is one effort to coach youth about how to succeed in business – especially by being smart, fair, and helping those who need it.
Here in Northwest Arkansas, Champions for Kids endeavors to do the same. Be sure to read about their upcoming Leadership Conference and what CFK’s CEO learned at Harvard that applies right here at home.
What makes a good leader? Biz2Biz NWA’s September issue is full of ideas, comments and suggestions from your peers and colleagues in Northwest Arkansas. We can all benefit from the aggregate of this knowledge and experience as we lead our businesses and our community to greatness.
Hey, this is Eric. Just stumbled upon your blog and thought to say hello. Your blog is quite informative. And regarding Bill Rancic & NWA, I sometimes watch We Mean Business and Giuliana and Bill. However, I haven't yet read his book Beyond the Lemonade Stand. Thinking to buy a copy of it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by for a short read. Eric as in the ship? Hope all is well.
