We met for a normal Leadership Council meeting yesterday. \u00a0Leadership council meetings consist of 20-30 small business leaders from around the state that share and help each other with the challenges of owning a small business. \u00a0We had the Secretary of State talk to us about the Indiana Small Business portal as well as an AIG representative talk to us about\u00a0pending legislation effects on business ownership. \u00a0Often the side discussions are as important as the presentations. \u00a0Yesterday was a first in the ~12 years on the Council, we had an afternoon retreat at Bankers Life Field House to\u00a0strategize for best ways to positively influence small business in Indiana. \u00a0 \u00a0Speaking of rubbing shoulders with decision makers, I had good conversations with an influential legislators wife (she is the owner of a small business) \u00a0and a former legislator that is still very plugged into state and national politics. \u00a0Great day; and a fun Pacers game to watch except for the end. \u00a0I left a little early and\u00a0passed up drinks afterwords because I had to drive home so I\u00a0did not have to watch us loose our lead. \u00a0These events and casual conversations are very important to the big picture in navigating the path to success.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
