New + Unique Circles

We are always looking for members to add to our current Owners and Professionals Circles. Besides starting new Owners and Professionals Circle, here are some of the unique Circles that we are creating. Regardless of whether a Circle has a unique platform focus or serves a particular audience, all of them will deliver the same BWC experience for all members.

YOUNG PROFESSIONALS CIRCLE

Did you know that we have a special BWC Circle just for young professionals? We'd love for you to join, or spread the word to someone who might be interested. This is a great opportunity for people early in their careers who are looking for education, support, and a close community as they build their careers. To learn more, reach out to Hannah Ubl, Young Professionals Circle Facilitator at hello@thebwc.org.

DEI Discussion CIRCLE

Where do you go to discus DEI issues - for yourself or your organization?

Facilitated by Anika Ward of the Sankofa Leadership Network, this Circle is designed to create a safe space to discuss diversity, equity and inclusion in your organization and all the challenges, questions and progress (or not) you are dealing with.

It follows a slightly different format than our usual Circles in that it meets virtually for 90 minutes each month, but still the same BWC experience:

• Group of 10-12 women in business

• Focused on learning and problem solving

• BWC member benefits

SOCIAL ENTERPRISE & NON-PROFIT CIRCLE

In today’s world, non-profits are stepping outside the traditional thinking of running such an organization. While social enterprises are focused on creating a profit but with a focus on doing good. Both organizations are truly mission driven.

In this Circle, we bring both business models together to talk about:

• the challenges they face as leaders

• share best practices

• hold each other accountable on the goals they set for the year

DIGITAL PLATFORM CIRCLE

Is your business revenue based on ads, sponsored content or affiliated content? Do you dream of discovering the ultimate SEO for your content? Does the possibility of an algorithm change keep you up at night?

We recognize that the digital platform as a business model has unique concerns and has to keep up with the fast pace of technology changes. So, we are going to pilot a Circle for those who run their business on the digital platform.

This Circle will still run on the same principles as all our Circles - just with a different focus when it comes to Issue Solving and Learning Opportunities.
