NBMDA would like to thank all of the attendees who participated in the 2007 Annual Convention & Tabletop Business Session. The convention was a success due to your participation, and in particular the event sponsors - DMSi, Columbia Forest Products, Hiab Inc., Infor, Kerfkore, Rev-A-Shelf, States Industries and Yellow Transportation.

NBMDA once again teamed with Vistage International to bring a stimulating and highly effective learning experience to attendees of the 2007 Annual Convention . The affiliation makes perfect sense as both entities seek to provide business owners with a fresher perspective, a broader outlook, and a clearer vision. As NBMDA's content collaborator, Vistage International played an integral role in designing the educational programming for the event and had representatives on-site in Colorado Springs to assist in the facilitation of the interactive learning format.

Complimentary 90–Minute Coaching Session

The Art of Being Small but Thinking Big presented by Vistage International

NBMDA member companies face greater challenges than ever before. Competition is fierce, resources are stretched and every day presents a new emergency. Vistage International, the world’s leading chief executive organization and NBMDA conference content provider, has the resources to help. Vistage membership provides a forum for small business leaders to focus on what’s truly critical: the strategic decisions needed by small business leaders to move their businesses to the next level.

Vistage has agreed to offer NBMDA members a complimentary 90-minute coaching session. These coaching sessions will be held at your company or in your community with a seasoned Vistage small business expert. Take this opportunity to “think outside the box” with a Vistage facilitator and tackle critical issues such as business planning and strategy that can help you grow your company.

Vistage was a proud sponsor of the recent NBMDA Annual Convention & Tabletop Business Session in Colorado Springs. During the Tabletop Business Session, 10 NBMDA members participated in 45-minute coaching sessions with on-site Vistage Chairs. In building on the momentum and excitement of this program during the conference, Vistage has agreed to extend their complimentary coaching session offer post-conference to all NBMDA members.
