The Michigan Municipal League Foundation is proud to host the Sirolli Institute founder and CEO, Ernesto Sirolli, for a series of seminars on entrepreneurism throughout Michigan, October 26-29, 2010. Entrepreneurship and the power of growing jobs, by ones and twos, is central to growing communities in the 21st century economy. The Sirolli method shows local officials how to harness the power of local entrepreneurs to bring sustainable change through "entrepreneur facilitation." They've had remarkable success in communities across the country and around the world, in places large and small, rural and urban. If you are a visionary leader, willing to consider a whole new approach to achieve transformational change, bring a team of key stakeholders to learn how this method might be what you've been waiting for!

Upon completion of this workshop, attendees will be able to:
1. Recognize and define popular myths about business development, using the Sirolli method.
2. Identify the key concepts to making their community entrepreneur-friendly.
3. Write an entrepreneurial-based economic development plan for their community.
