SUMMARY:Workshop | Setting goals and priorities in collaboration with Startclub Arnhem
DESCRIPTION:Please note this workshop has been moved to: Monday\, April 14\, Lizanne Jakobs gives the free workshop “Goal setting and prioritization” at Startclub Arnhem. \nbecause as an entrepreneur\, it’s important to have those “vague” ideas and “hopeful” goals clear! Only in this way can you chart a focused path and determine concrete plans for the future of your business.  \nWithout clear goals for your business\, it becomes difficult to separate main and secondary issues. What do you need to do and when to get the results you would like? This gives you peace of mind to do business from there.   \nDuring this workshop you will learn how to set specific and measurable goals for the coming years and display them in a visually appealing way. Then we’ll talk about how you then plan your priorities or activities for the next 12 months so that you’re working sufficiently “on” your business and not “in” it. This workshop is suitable for just starting entrepreneurs as well as those who have been running their own business for some time.   \nPresenting is Lizanne Jakobs\, founder of Brilliant Work and well-known partner at Start Club Arnhem. This coaching and consulting firm has been voted Holland’s best for SMEs several times. Lizanne has been an entrepreneur\, business coach and speaker for 14 years and can explain complex issues very simply.
