"Because of your time and effort, the client companies of the Advisory Board Council
will receive the next level of support crucial to their continued growth. It is generally
held that only 40% of businesses survive their first five years of operation and that
only 10% survive a decade. With approximately 90% of Florida workers working for
and 90% of all new jobs originating in small businesses. The owner is so entrenched
in the day-to-day operations of running a small business, there is rarely anytime for
long-range planning. Any successful enterprise must plan for the future. Thank you
for your continued enthusiasm for the University of Central Florida’s Small Business
Development Center Advisory Board Council." Carrie Duvall, Program Manager University
of Central Florida
"The assessment allowed me the opportunity to first, observe myself as an outsider
and second, to gain clarity and perspective on my leadership abilities by learning
about my archetypes. This process allowed me to define my leadership qualities in a
very tangible way, which provided me with the platform on which to more consciously
utilize my skills strategically and to attend to any areas that I need improvement and
strengthening. This was very empowering, both personally and professionally. Not
only because I now understand myself better, but I will also be able to identify certain
archetypal qualities within others. This will allow me to adjust and modify my manner
of communicating according to each individual, which will allow for more effective and
more quality communication." Claudia Flores, Vice President Comerica Bank

fears which enable us to grow and succeed. Now that I understand archetypes, I can
