Experienced Business Owners And Subject Experts

Each month, and at each Board meeting, there is an invited speaker or business owner who has the reputation and experience of either creating a unique business, or having expertise in a specific field relating to business. These speakers present as well as facilitate discussion and there is a structured process to evaluate the speaker at each session.

As the bob group evolves the requirements of the group will drive the selection of speakers.
