  • Summary

  • The Second Stage serves as an entrepreneurial forum to exchange ideas and best practices amongst peers. While each business is unique, most companies face the same obstacles on their path to success. The topics and trends addressed within this community of like-minded individuals will include financials and reporting, valuation and value creation, succession planning, human resources, technology, insurance and benefits, as well as many others. The show will be delivered from the perspective of the hosts who view opportunities from both an entrepreneurial and institutional private investor perspective. The Second Stage also shines a light on the significant impact that entrepreneurs and their growing companies have on creating a vibrant economic base.

    2016 Year in Review Special Edition: Part 2
    Dec 19 2016
    With 2016 winding down, we feel it’s a great time for small business owners to reflect on their successes and failures (or better stated, growth opportunities) in the past year, and then begin developing new strategies that build on these experiences in the year to come. In keeping with the spirit of this show, cultivating cultures of continuous learning, we’d like to share not only our own reflections and experiences over the past year, but those of some of our post popular guests in this two part series. We have had the opportunity to speak with a wide range of incredibly talented individuals, all of whom offered their time, talents and perspectives to help entrepreneurs create the ideal environment for a thriving business. We hope, as in all of our episodes, to provide a few key takeaways to help guide you on your journey as you plan, grow and prepare for an eventual—and prosperous—exit from your business.
