How are book selections made?
Book titles are carefully curated by our head bookworm, Nikita Allen. An avid reader, each book represents ideas which helped Nikita navigate her companies from start up to success.
Does the book club read only BIPOC authors?
We read many books that are valuable to the unique perspective shared by our book club members. However, this does NOT mean limiting the scope of our growth only to titles authored by persons of color.
What's included in the monthly membership?
You’ll purchase books on your own (or borrow from a library). However, your subscription grants you access to:
- a welcoming space to share your story and be heard
- thought-provoking book selections that will empower and inspire you
- ‘members only’ discussions that allow you to connect with a supportive community of fellow BIPOC entrepreneurs on similar journeys
- tools and strategies to turn discussion insights into breakthroughs for your business
Where does the book club meet?
Weekly Discussions are remote. Members are invited to join the conversation at 8:45 am on Fridays via Zoom VIDEO Meeting.
What is the format of the meetings?
You’ll read up to three (3) chapters per week, post your thoughts on a cloud-based whiteboard (questions are shared in advance) and exchange ideas during our weekly book club discussion.
The conversation is facilitated to help us start and end on time, limit rabbit trails and allow everyone an opportunity to respectfully share their opinion of the selection with the group.
Are book club discussions recorded?
Yes, recorded discussions are a valuable resource for members who may have missed a meeting or want to re-visit certain points of the conversation. However, to encourage intimacy and cultivate a safe space, recordings are made available only to current members during that month’s reading.
Can I join if my company isn't based in the Carolinas?
Absolutely! Since we meet remotely, members can join, read and participate in book club discussions from everywhere.
What if I don't (yet) own a business?
Because book selections are geared toward growing businesses, you’ll get the most value when you can apply discussions, ideas and outcomes to an already established company.
