Are you ready to evolve from a tactical operator to a strategic, financially empowered CEO?

WBENC LIFT CEO Catalyst, a multi-session strategic growth program brought to you by Wells Fargo, is designed to help entrepreneurs shift from managing the details to mastering the big picture. Through expert-led sessions, curated resources, and actionable strategies, you’ll gain the clarity, confidence, and financial intelligence to lead your business into the future.

This program combines five virtual learning sessions, access to exclusive WBENC eLearning resources, and a high-impact in-person activation at the WBENC National Conference, designed to help you transform leadership into a growth engine.

Throughout the program, participants will build their CEO Catalyst Playbook—a living, evolving document that captures strategy, financials, and growth plans, creating actionable takeaways for long-term success.

Session 2: Build Enterprise Readiness for Sustainable Growth with Corporate Contracts

Corporate contracting demands more than capability; it requires enterprise readiness. In this session, attendees will learn how to compete for and grow corporate contracts by strengthening their capability statement, reinforcing their value to corporate buyers, and positioning their business for long-term, scalable corporate relationships.

Gain practical insights from Marianne Ellis of CEO Success Community along with guest panelists, Lauren Sustek of Bartkowski Strategic Contracting, Amy Rowland of Pangea Biological, and Elena Morales of SMT Automation LLC, who have successfully navigated and grown through corporate contracts.

Plus! Attendees will also gain access to the WBENC eLearning course, “Enterprise Readiness for Corporate Contracting”—a step-by-step guide designed to help business owners prepare for their first corporate contract and elevate the quality of their responses to Requests for Proposals (RFPs), increasing their ability to compete effectively in corporate supply chains.
