The U.S. Small Business Administration is accepting applications for its Small Business Executive Training Program
WASHINGTON, Feb. 21, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Small business owners looking for professional development need look no further than SBA's T.H.R.I.V.E. Emerging Leaders Reimagined Program. This transformative initiative offers small business owners across the United States a unique opportunity to accelerate their business growth through an intensive, executive-level training program.
T.H.R.I.V.E. stands for Train, Hope, Rise, Innovate, Venture, Elevate. The program combines online learning with in-person sessions, focusing on leadership enhancement, strategic financial management, market innovation, and cultivating a thriving company culture. Over a six-month period from late June, 2024 to December, 2024, participants will engage in an interactive curriculum, receive coaching from experienced business experts, and develop a three-year strategic growth action plan.
Among last year's participants, 96% would recommend T.H.R.I.V.E. Emerging Leaders Reimagined to a peer, and 92% gained additional knowledge and insights from the curriculum. The program delivers customized engagement, problem-solving, and peer-to-peer interaction. It fosters a business ecosystem among peers, government leaders, and the financial community. It helps build sustainable and scalable businesses that promote local and national economic development.
"T.H.R.I.V.E. Emerging Leaders Reimagined is an energized and excellent opportunity for emerged U.S. small business owners to gain the additional knowledge and tools to diversify and grow their revenues and scale," said U.S. Small Business Administration Associate Administrator Mark Madrid. "In addition to a curated curriculum, this innovative cohort model creates the magic of small business owners learning from, networking with and nurturing peer-to-peer encouragement with other like-minded small business owners. We look forward to another successful year of this program! Since its inception this initiative has trained nearly 9,000 small business owners, creating over 11,000 jobs, generating nearly $1 billion in new financing, and securing over $4 billion in government contracts. Outstanding!"
