We are so very thankful for the mentors in our community that will volunteer their time with Gateway CEO over the next few months as these young entrepreneurs transition into second semester and go through the process of creating their own business from business plan to trade show launch! This first session is our 'speed dating' round where students get to meet with mentors - with quick introductions and then each get to select their top picks as we do mentor matching. It was a vibrant morning to watch them interact with each other. I love the feedback. ALSO - we are still looking for a few more mentors for this year's group and would love to chat with any of our local business leaders that may be interested in joining us! Special thanks to the following: Tracy Bianco: Leadership Coach, Lisa Phillipson, Doug Bristow, Andrew Ambrose, First National Bank of Waterloo, Jordan McCreery, Tara Durst, Vern Hamm, Diana Willhold, Becky Yaeger, Mallord Hubbard, Kathy Hoelscher, and Derek Johnson. And special thanks to Board Member Teresa Werner Reiniger for coordinating. Many exciting moments to come!
