ScaleUp: The Covid Edition leverages the highly successful curriculum designed by the Thurston EDC to create a new program that is focused on operational strategies that will create resiliency and sustainability for your business in the face of a global pandemic.
The three-hour courses are held online on 10 consecutive Wednesdays, allowing up to 100 businesses around the state to improve their strategic thinking and decision-making, create operational efficiencies and strengthen the bottom line in times of uncertainty.
The program includes virtual classroom training, roundtables, best practices and access to mentors and other resources. A special “Study Hall” on Mondays provides opportunities for private mentoring and coaching.
