Wayne Pike Workforce Alliance
13th Annual Meeting

Each year, the Workforce Alliance and its Board of Directors hold an annual breakfast to showcase current initiatives that impact our local economy. 
This year we are delighted to showcase:

The Growth Mindset

Solving Problems and Discovering Opportunities

The Growth Mindset is an element of the entrepreneurial mindset. It has been embedded in educational programs, corporate mission statements and personal success strategies. Local, regional, state and national programs provide examples of the Growth Mindset that can be replicated, expanded and used to grow entrepreneurial opportunities, personal success stories and regional prosperity.

 Join us for a discussion on how the growth mindset can help people:

  · Develop Intelligence
· Embrace Challenges
· Persist in the face of setbacks
· Find lessons and inspiration in others and so much more!
