SUMMARY:Goal Accountability Project (GAP) Information Session
DESCRIPTION:The Goal Accountability Project (GAP) Returns to The Greenhouse Offering Program in Resiliency for Small Businesses \nAbout the Program: \n“Bridging the GAP in your success: The Goal Accountability Project” is a collaboration with The Greenhouse and Pinellas County SCORE. GAP brings together a select group of business owners for an 8-week series starting on June 23. Sheila Hooper Neisler\, of Pinellas County SCORE and owner of Catalyst – A Marketing Company returns to facilitate the series. “The COVID-19 disruption to our businesses and our personal lives dramatically demonstrates how our goals\, enthusiasm and even our momentum can get derailed in a moment’s notice. Inertia\, busyness and distractions set in. We may have become complacent\, perhaps lazy in our focus\, productivity and accountability. (Efforts are for another day?). The reality is that these efforts are EXACTLY what we will need to get our individual businesses launched or back on track.” \nThe Goal Accountability Project is specifically designed to help create and nurture an individual and small group discipline to deliver results. Data has shown that past cohorts had 68% more focused on achieving their personally-set goals and 90% more confident in their ability to achieve them. \n“Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough; we must do!” Johann Wolfgange von Goethe \nInterested in participating? \nJoin us during the GAP Information webinar to learn more. \nEligibility: \nThere is no cost for participation in “Bridging the GAP\,” and the program is open to graduates of the Entrepreneurial Academy\, Small Business Enterprises (SBEs)\, Greenhouse clients with existing businesses and St. Petersburg’s second stage business owners. The class will be limited to 20 individuals and participants must complete an application to be selected. \nThe GAP Schedule: \nGAP Information Session: Tuesday\, June 2– 8:30 AM – 9:30 AM. \nGAP Sessions: Tuesdays\, June 23 – August 11 from 8:30 – 9:30 a.m.

SUMMARY:Vizcaya Climate Collaborative: Play to Survive
DESCRIPTION:Examine active efforts to identify and implement collaborative solutions to the effects of climate change and extreme weather events.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nTime to put your survival skills to the test! During the next Vizcaya Climate Collaborative\, visitors take an active role in the climate change conversation with a role-playing\, puzzle-solving\, interactive game night. \nDesigned for the prepper at heart\, this program puts theory into practice using Vizcaya as a case study for participants to prepare or recover from the dire consequences of climate change and extreme weather events. \nHow would you prepare for a hurricane? And then recover once it’s hit? \nWhile you’re getting through the first round\, you’ll also be getting clues that grant you access to the safe zones in the ultimate test of skill – the zombie apocalypse. \n—————————– \nWelcome to the Vizcaya Climate Collaborative\, a series of programs that engage different aspects of environmental sustainability to foster conversation around the topic. This program uses games to address the very serious topic of disaster preparedness and recovery. After working through real-world scenarios using Vizcaya as a case study\, we’ll use what we learn to survive the zombie apocalypse. \nHow it works: \nUpon arrival\, the entire group will get an orientation to the night. From there we will start the game and expect about 45 minutes of game-play\, led by Vizcaya’s Collections Care Specialist. During the game\, you’ll get the clues you need to access the safe zones in Game 2\, the zombie apocalypse in Vizcaya Village. \nMore about the games: \nGame 1: disaster recovery. Storms are part of our lives in South Florida\, but they are getting progressively worse. Join us\, and 45 of your closest friends (who will become your allies in survival) to navigate all the moving pieces required to preserve Vizcaya. You’ll learn about what the museum does to prepare and how the museum activates recovery teams once a storm has passed to see how preservation and the changing climate can be at odds. You’ll even pick up some tips to apply in your own lives! \nGame 2: The CDC says if you’re prepared for the zombie apocalypse\, you’re prepared for everything. In this game\, the group will try to survive the zombie apocalypse in the most Miami fashion. Use what you learn in game 1 to gain admission into the safe zones\, which will be a mix of cocktails\, games\, and other delights. But don’t get comfortable – there is a fleet of zombies waiting to turn you.
