Webinar: Turning Business Documents into Action Using NotebookLM
July 8 - 11 am
Your business is full of valuable information — proposals, contracts, SOPs, reports, meeting notes — but too often those documents sit unused. In this intermediate-level workshop, you’ll learn how to use NotebookLM to transform your existing business documents into clear insights, decisions, and action plans.
We’ll walk through how to upload and organize key materials, ask strategic questions across multiple documents, extract themes, summarize long reports, and identify gaps or opportunities hiding in plain sight. You’ll see how NotebookLM can help you synthesize information faster, prepare for strategic planning sessions, streamline operations, and make better data-informed decisions without hiring an analyst.
Designed for growth-minded entrepreneurs who already have established processes and documentation, this session will help you move from information overload to operational clarity — turning what your business already knows into smarter next steps.

Webinar: What Can You Negotiate in a Commercial Lease?
July 14 - 10am
Commercial leases are often presented as standard agreements, but nearly every major lease provision can be negotiated. Many small business owners focus primarily on rental rates and overlook clauses that can significantly impact their costs, flexibility, and long-term success.
In this workshop, commercial real estate broker Nathan Smith will explain the key lease provisions that business owners should review before signing a lease. Attendees will learn which terms landlords commonly negotiate, how those provisions affect their business, and practical strategies for securing more favorable lease terms.
Whether you are leasing your first location, renewing an existing lease, or planning an expansion, this session will provide actionable insights to help you make informed real estate decisions and avoid costly mistakes.

July 21 - 9a

Join this informative session to learn how to evaluate your readiness for ownership, identify and assess potential properties, navigate the acquisition process, and understand what lenders look for when financing commercial real estate purchases.

Webinar: Team Synchronization: From Friction to Flow
July 21 - 10am
This session gives leaders practical tools to move their teams from friction to flow. Participants learn how to pinpoint what’s blocking team performance, help team members communicate personal “needs” that shape daily team interactions, and use a clear prioritization framework to focus on what matters most. Leaders leave equipped to reduce conflict, strengthen teamwork, and align their teams around high‑impact goals for more effective execution.
Three Learning Outcomes:
1. Leaders/Attendees will diagnose their team’s key synchronization blockers—interpersonal conflicts, competing agendas, and work goal execution disagreements.
2. Leaders/Attendees will learn to identify systemic interpersonal dynamics—such as trust gaps, conflict avoidance, silos, or power imbalances—that influence team effectiveness.
3. Leaders/Attendees will develop prioritized actions to strengthen trust, communication, and collaboration.
