Economic Acceleration Tour Continues Into Tennessee




After successful stops in Columbus, Austin, San Antonio, (and later this month, Houston and Dallas), veteran CEO and best-selling author Gary Harpst will be continuing his 50-city speaking tour “Economic Acceleration: Breaking the 3% Speed Limit” in Tennessee.

Gary will be speaking in Memphis, TN on March 17, Nashville, TN on March 18, and Knoxville, TN on March 19.

Here's the issues that frustrate Gary, but he has a plan, and wants to share it with you:

  • Why is it that every business – even the best ones - struggle so much to sustain growth and profitability?
  • Why is that only 3% of businesses drive the overwhelming majority of economic growth and job creation in any given community?
  • Why does it have to be only 3%? Can’t we do any better?
  • Perhaps more importantly, what are we going to do about accelerating growth for the other 97% of businesses?

In attendance at the Tennessee Economic Acceleration events will be CEOs of small and midsized businesses, chamber of commerce executives, economic development executives, civic leaders, business incubator professionals, college and university business program chairs and faculty, quality program professionals, venture capitalists, private equity and angel investors, business coaches, management consultants, and professional service firm partners.
