From Chaos to Clarity: When the Road Changes So Must You

From Chaos to Clarity: When the Road Changes So Must You

Overview

Over the last 5 years the market’s shifted → owners reacted → few have paused to ask “where are we going in the next 12–18 months?”

The past five years have rewritten the playbook for small business owners. Join fellow Fairfield County leaders for an energizing session to step back, see the new landscape, and learn practical ways to steer your business with clarity.

Markets, technology, and customer habits have shifted dramatically over the last few years and most of us have been too busy keeping things running to pause and ask, “Where are we really headed?”

From Chaos to Clarity is your opportunity to step off autopilot and get a clear view of your business in today’s environment. During the hybrid session you’ll explore:


  • How local trends and data line up with the challenges you’re feeling day-to-day
  • Simple ways to spot where your business actually sits on its growth curve and what that means for your next moves
  • Proven frameworks that help you focus on high-value work instead of endless firefighting
  • Practical insights from specialists in cost optimization and smart tech for small businesses

You won’t leave with a 40-page action plan you’ll leave with clarity, new tools, and a fresh perspective on how to steer your business in the next 12–18 months.

From insightful discussions to interactive workshops, this event is designed to help you navigate through the chaos and find clarity in these challenging times. The session is led by Frank Lockwood a 2 x business founder and certified business coach. He'll lead the discussion and provide actionable strategies you can take away from the workshop and start using immediately.

Additionally, we'll be joined by two subject matter experts:


  • Russell Ferguson from Schooley Mitchell: Introduction to reducing costs and improving efficiency for SMBs at no cost to you!
  • Kristina Martinelli from coaigence: How small businesses can leverage AI tools to save time and grow

Don't miss out on this opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals and gain valuable insights. See you there!
