Our Guiding Principles
“Expertise for Entrepreneurs”
We make certain that the culmination of all our efforts is focusing on our clients: Georgia’s entrepreneurs. We create new products and services that are suited to the needs of our clients. We hire, train, and monitor the performance of individuals so that they have the skills, knowledge, and motivation to deliver products and services in the most effective manner.
“Help Georgia Businesses Grow”
We have a thorough understanding of clients’ business needs and an obvious caring and passion to help them succeed. We treat clients, fellow employees, and stakeholders with the respect that earns trust and builds mutual benefit. We celebrate our clients’ successes and measure their growth in order to exhibit the valuable impact the SBDC has on the national, state, and local economies.
“Public Service Faculty”
Through learning, discovery, and shared responsibility, we educate our clients how to become better business owners. We adhere to the professional tenets and operating principles of our university partners, the U.S. Small Business Administration, and the Association of Small Business Development Centers. We recognize that our numerous roles (citizen, employee, family member, etc.) are inter-related and that proper perspective is needed to achieve the various goals of each role.
