What to expect

This program, sponsored by Pinnacle Bank, is designed to increase your awareness and understanding of how to work ON your business to help you grow it in a productive, successful way. Each weekly meeting focuses on key materials that are both fun and informative. As we move through each lesson, we will share our ideas and experiences to shape and mold our understanding of the material in a way that is far superior to simply reading a book on our own. We will be combining all of our minds to become a master mind.

How a Mastermind Group Works: The group meets one hour each week for 6 weeks using the book The E-Myth Revisited by Michael Gerber as the basis for our discussions. Pinnacle will provide you with a complimentary copy of the book. The group is limited to 12 people so we all have a chance to participate, interact, and support each other extensively.
