Community Innovation Lab maintains a roster of experienced entrepreneurs and business experts because we know that advisors, mentors, and coaches are vitally important to entrepreneurs. Supporting a startup or high-growth entrepreneur is a rewarding and enriching experience. Advisors are subject matter experts who provide short-term support to help move a business forward. Mentoring supports all aspects of an entrepreneur's growth and is a one-year commitment, however, as little as one hour per week can make a huge difference. Coaches present specific topics and work closely with entrepreneurs on methodologies and the application to their business. Meetings may take place at Co-iLab Hub or any mutually convenient place, via telephone, and online. Check out our current opportunities: The Refinery: The Refinery is seeking coaches for the upcoming Boot Camp Business Accelerator for Women Entrepreneurs from Thursday, January 24 to Saturday, January 26, 2019 (9 am - 5 pm). For this three-day Boot Camp, each coach acts a team leader to a group of five women entrepreneurs. Coaches present segments of the curriculum and work closely with participants on methodologies and the application to their business. Coaches will need to have deep knowledge of business theories, management techniques, business-growth methodologies, and direct experience with entrepreneurship.
