“I think that the peer aspect is really important because as a small business owner, you feel quite alone...”
“When I started my company, the things I didn’t know had exponentially increased and, therefore, the benefit of being in a TEC group had also increased dramatically."
"We have implemented a number of ideas from TEC, and they have contributed to our culture, the way we look at things and ultimately our success.”
“I think TEC has made me a more mature leader, with a better understanding of my values, and one thing it’s done is help me ask the right questions. I don’t always have the right answers, or even always have the right information, but I’m much better at knowing what I need to ask for.”
“There’s something really powerful about the interaction and what you learn from your peers who are doing it right now at the same time as you with their own style.”
“We at Lee Valley are so bought in to this TEC model that we have multiple TEC members and have launched the TEC Inside program, where we host our Lee Valley TEC meetings monthly.”
