Berkshire Enterprises’ February Business Breakfast Forum: What was your greatest success and what was your greatest mistake?

Insanity is defined as doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Success depends on learning from experience including our mistakes. To err is human but to continue to err without analyzing what is going on and changing leads to failure. This forum will be a discussion of how participants have used their successes and failures to improve their businesses and their lives. The forum will be lead by Steve Fogel, Program Director of Berkshire Enterprises. Berkshire Enterprises Business Breakfast Forums have been held since 2001. The Forums are made possible through the generous support from Greylock Federal Credit Union, Legacy Banks, Berkshire Bank, TD Banknorth, and the Pittsfield Cooperative Bank in space provided by CompuWorks. The forums include an active discussion of techniques that work and can be implemented easily. A light breakfast is included. Berkshire Enterprises is a program of the Office for Workforce Development at Berkshire Community College.
