Accelerate: A roadmap for small business owners

The first workshop, titled Accelerate, is designed for small business owners who feel stagnant or frustrated and are seeking a roadmap to drive growth and success. Walter’s Accelerate program draws from his 23 years of coaching experience, helping entrepreneurs sharpen their focus, improve their sales strategy, and build resilient teams.

Walter emphasizes that success in business mirrors success in sports: it’s all about discipline, systems, and execution. During this hands-on session, attendees will learn to develop audacious goals, create a winning organizational culture, and ensure that every team member is aligned for success. If you’ve ever felt lost or overwhelmed as a small business owner, this workshop is for you.
