We are continuing our Entrepreneurship Workshop series with a talk by Gib Mason on October 24 from 12:00 - 1:00 PM at UC 115. Gib will share exactly how entrepreneurs can gain the influence and commitment necessary to motivate others and gain support.

Entrepreneurs need to influence LOTS of people....customers, investors, employees and potential employees to name a few.  So just how do they do that?  This workshop will look at best practices for creating more motivation and influence, as well as ways to inspire higher commitment and trust levels from others.  You'll gain the skills and tools necessary for connecting the commitment and performance of others to get the positive results you desire.
