With American Thanksgiving just past, as well as #SmallBusinessSaturday and the local #ShopSmall campaigns, I'm encouraging everyone (businesses, organizations, leaders, entrepreneurs), to find time to rest and rejuvenate during the holiday season and recover from our challenging times in 2020 as we head into 2021.
This upcoming week, startup founders and company leaders may find it useful to learn from the women presenting the Brave At Business Bundle & Summit from November 30th to December 4th as well as the #ChooseWOMEN Wednesday Campaign on December 2, 2020.
