Verne Harnish is recognized as one of the "Top 10 Minds in Small Business" by Fortune Small Business Magazine. He will speak to area business leaders about the essential qualities of successful and fast-growth companies.

"Verne’s insights and advice have profoundly influenced my thinking about leading my firm," said Michael Mahoney, CPA, Adonix President and CEO. "Other senior executives leading fast-growth companies in the DC area will take away many great ready-to-implement ideas from the session. We are also pleased to be able to help The Women’s Center, whose great work provides critical value to many in the community."
