Business owners who spend too much time putting out fires rather than growing their business may find help through an upcoming telephone workshop, "Transform your Business from Chaos to Intention."
Sponsored by Larry Galler, a small business coach, the workshops are aimed at any person who wants to manage their business more effectively.
"Intentional businesses are built and managed by those who know what they want to accomplish and have a path to get there," Galler said. "There are so many business owners who are just handling the chaos that they never have the time to work on the business. The better way is an intentional business, with planning ahead, being proactive."
Galler is teaching business owners how to create an intentional business through attendance at three telephone-based introductory workshops for owners and managers of small and mid-size businesses.
"I will provide the background on the thought processes necessary to manage businesses," Galler said. "Conducting workshops over the telephone is a hugely effective way of distance learning. It's interactive, because those participating can ask questions."
Additional workshops will be offered after the initial three meetings. Galler recommends the workshop for people who are starting or in the early stages of owning a business, to those who have owned their business for 25 years and keep running into the same problems.
"Those participating will learn to delegate better, describe management processes and market more effectively," Galler said.
If you go
The workshops will be offered from 4 to 5 p.m. on three successive Tuesdays -- Jan. 11, 18 and 25. To reserve space, send a "Reply" e-mail with "Sign me up" in the "Subject Line" to Larry@LarryGaller.com.
Pre-seminar notes and the conference call number to call will be sent by return e-mail.
For additional information, contact Galler at (219)464-9463.
