Alicia was commissioned to develop operations management course material for the new entrepreneurial development program offered by the Small Business Development Center (SBDC) at Georgia State University. This new program, GrowSmart, replaced the former FastTrac program. The program was held at Georgia Power’s headquarters in downtown Atlanta. She worked directly with Bernie Meineke, former program director in providing this information.
This resulted in a presentation accompanied by a worksheet. As author, Alicia eventually converted the presentation into an e-book entitled, Keeping Score: How to Use Business Processes to Increase Cash Flow. It is available for free download.
