Join CCEDNet Manitoba and Strategy Made Simple for an inside view to how things are done in other social enterprises at the “Open Book” panel discussion and workshop on March 5!
Learn from other practitioners, gain a better understanding of how others approach problem solving, and apply new techniques and ideas to your social enterprise.
The panel includes Kendall Giilck, manager of the Building Futures social enterprise employment program at Siloam Mission, who will describe situations and issues that occur during operations. A team of social enterprise advisors, Lisa Forbes, Manager of Business and Social Enterprise Development at SEED Winnipeg, Ian Rountree, Marketing Communications manager for LITE Winnipeg, and Lauren Lee, former Social Enterprise Manager (now Operations Manager) at Resource Assistance for Youth (RaY), will speak into those situations.
Following the panel learning experience, apply the lessons discussed to your social enterprise through activities led by Matthew Rempel of Strategy Made Simple. Share your experiences, work through some exercises, and share ideas with the other participants.
Topics we expect to cover include:
- How to manage supported employment
- How to sell new services
- Balancing impact with revenue generation
