From Great Bend Economic Development...
Great Bend Economic Development (GBED) is thrilled to announce that the first class of the "Entrepreneurial Mindset" series, will be offered free of charge on Jan. 10. This initiative aims to encourage individuals interested in entrepreneurship to test-drive the class, providing a valuable opportunity to experience the content and atmosphere firsthand.
Participants attending the free trial class on Jan. 10 will not only have the chance to explore the exciting world of entrepreneurial thinking but will also enjoy a complimentary dinner as part of the experience. GBED is eager to welcome prospective entrepreneurs, business enthusiasts, and anyone curious about the entrepreneurial mindset.
If attendees find the class valuable and wish to continue their journey with the Entrepreneurial Mindset Class, GBED will seamlessly guide them through the online setup process, and payment details will be addressed at that time. This innovative approach allows participants to make an informed decision about their commitment after experiencing the class firsthand.
The weekly classes, led by co-facilitators Jim Correll and Shelly Peacock, promise engaging discussions, video content exploration, and an insightful dive into the pages of "Who Owns the Ice House?"—a book highlighting the inspiring entrepreneurial journey of Clifton Taulbert. Local entrepreneurs will also share their experiences, offering real-world perspectives on the challenges and triumphs of entrepreneurship.
GBED remains committed to fostering a culture of entrepreneurship and innovation, providing individuals with the tools and mindset necessary for success in business and daily life. As an added incentive, participants who attend at least 5 sessions will receive a 50% refund if they choose to register for the full course.

The deadline to compete in the next season of IGNITE is June 13, 2024, and participants will earn extra credit for their participation in the added classes and intensives.
