Registration
Registration is officially open for NNBA’s 29th Annual Nurse Entrepreneurship Conference in Orlando, Florida on October 3 - 5, 2014. We have eleven fantastic speakers this year, three of which have received the prestigious CSP® (Certified Speaking Professional) award given by the National Speakers Association. This designation is given to less than 10% of speakers in the world! This conference is an unbelievable value for nurse entrepreneurs, nurse entrepreneurs-to-be and nurses interested in learning business skills that will advance their careers. Its value transcends the information rich presentations with the tremendous opportunities to network with likeminded nurses.
Events Calendar
The events calendar is here! NNBA’s Web Development team has completed the interactive events calendar for NNBA members. If your business puts on events such as workshops, presentations and conferences, you now have the ability to promote your event on this calendar. Every business owner knows that advertising and marketing takes a considerable amount of money. The value of this member benefit alone exceeds the cost of membership. The NNBA Events Calendar is displayed on the bottom of the Home page of NNBA’s website. Our website is very popular with thousands visiting monthly. June’s statistics showed that the average viewer time has exceeded 5 minutes which is great news for any website owner. If you have any feedback, please use the contact us form or email us at support@nnbanow.com. We are pleased to bring you this functionality and look forward to bringing NNBA members ever increasing value.
According to Gallup’s 2013 State of the American Workplace Report only 30% of American workers feel engaged or inspired at their jobs and the vast majority (70%) feel they aren’t reaching their full potential. Check out the article of interest below Why Your Life Needs a Mission Statement. If you don’t have a life that you are excited about, it is time to create it. NNBA has been helping nurses for 29 years to launch successful businesses and to reach their full potential.
All the best,

The Perfection Trap: Why Everything You Learned About Success May Be Wrong | Forbes
Our education system and society at large reward the idea of striving for perfection: getting an “A” on an exam, flawlessly executing a project, looking like the super fit people on the cover of most magazines; and yet, in the world of entrepreneurship, perfection is more of a liability than an asset.
I’ve seen the need for perfection stop many entrepreneurs and would-be entrepreneurs dead in their tracks. Perfection paralyzes people. If you believe that you need to be perfect, you are less likely to take risks, and more likely to be afraid to take a single step because you don’t want to move in the “wrong” direction.
