Description

Business growth is an ongoing thought for just about everyone that listens to this podcast. 

How does my business take the next step? 

The answer to that question may lie within opportunities for professional development or credential attainment. The riddle could also be solved with the help of a neutral set of eyes, examining your business in a way you simply are too close to see.

On this week's Mind Your Business, we tackle the subject of business and professional growth from three different perspectives. Our guests include:

• Dr. Jason Xiong, Associate Dean for Advanced Studies in Business at Appalachian State's Walker College of Business, speaking on the benefits working professionals can gain from seeking graduate degrees and certificates.
• Carmella Tomlinson, Director of the Small Business Center at Caldwell Community College & Technical Institute, speaking to the ways the SBC network can help start and grow businesses in a realistic and financially responsible manner.
• Christina Fryzel, Owner of Wahoo's Adventures, on the benefits of the Mountain BizWorks Waypoint Accelerator program, and how professional development through a cohort-style approach can help businesses learn along like-minded industry partners.

Mind Your Business is written and produced weekly by theBoone Area Chamber of Commerce. This podcast is made possible thanks to the sponsorship support of Appalachian Commercial Real Estate.
