Retained to address the 6 June Illinois City/County Managers Association during their Summer 2019 Conference in Galena, IL, I was asked to speak plainly about the businesslike ROI for private and public money invested in venture-centric incubators and accelerators. I learned the audience was well pleased. It's a difficult message to deliver. Peeling onions about ROI for incubators can cause those in denial to tear-up. Several attendees claim it was the most eye-opening and actionable presentation. When presented on large screens, the slides are highly animated; allowing the slides with a large quantity of text to build-out and disappear to optimize impact. Unanimated decks require a bit of extra reading time. Please feel free to reach out if you have interest in this or any of the 72 different retained presentations offered. Terms and conditions will be sent to you upon request. Thank you. John R. Dallas, Jr. | johnrdallasjr@enclaveforentrepreneurs.com | @JohnRDallasJr on Twitter and Facebook

Entrepreneurship is
Very personal.
Mental Health +
Physical Health =
Venture Health
Too often
entrepreneurs have
difficulty separating
their personal
identity from the
identity of the
venture(s) they
launch and lead.
Personal brands and
venture brands fuse.

Healthcare
professionals could
become extra sensitized
to the complexity of
diagnosing and treating
high-performing
entrepreneurs prone to
subordinating
personal health;
often prioritizing
“health” of their
ventures and other
people. This is risk!
