What we’re about
The Veteran Women Business Owners United (VWBOU) is designed to actively engage Veteran Women interested in starting a business, current business owners, or those simply interested in connecting with other Veteran women for personal/professional development, networking and fun! Females on Active Duty, Reservist and military spouses are also welcome.
FIRST FRIDAYS
VWBOU will meet every First Friday from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. for a fun social event. Here Veteran women new to the DFW area, transitioning and/or simply looking to connect can enjoy a relaxing evening networking with other women Veterans.
3RD WEDNESDAYS WINNING WOMEN
VWBOU wants Veteran women to connect socially, but we also want to provide opportunities for personal and professional growth, so every third Wednesday from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m., we will meet for Winning Women offering presentations on leadership, business development, educational opportunities, networking and more. Each session focuses on how women can develop a competitive edge to achieve their deserved outcomes and ultimately win! Come regularly and develop your personal/professional winning game plan!
5TH SATURDAYS SISTER-TO-SISTER SOCIAL
Finally, we all deserve a break, so every fifth Saturday (basically once a quarter), we will organize an exciting and interesting social outing.
Get connected to the DFW's newest meet up group uniting Veteran women business owners and Veteran women.

# Managing Mondays - Building Your Business Workforce
It's Managing Monday, the day designed to help you identify the right support for your business. In 2023, we’re working diligently to design, and implement progamming that will drive our vision forward. To this end, Managing Monday will force on clear cut strategies, to help our main street small businesses develop their business workforce.
Each quarter, we will focus on a issues important to you that will literally help you begin or enhance your business workforce. We’ll help you understand the ins and outs of human capital management, tax incentives, and other unique incentives that small businesses have over large corporations related to recruitment and retention.
This article Workforce Development and the Changing Labor Market outlines the element of workforce planning, development, and management making the note below that we often remind the entire business community of—the various values of hiring of Veterans.
> In building a diverse workforce, consider not only factors like gender, ethnicity, religion, and sexual orientation, but also diversity of thought and past experience such as military service. Veterans are often considered top job candidates for nearly any industry, and many business owners want to support this community as they transition back to civilian life by employing them. Hiring veterans can earn business incentives, bring leadership to your team, and, given their extensive training, help bridge existing skills gaps within an organization.
In addition, in this article entitled The Future of Work from NTT DATA, key strategies are identified that businesses needs to understand, and address, in order to create successful recruitment and retention strategies for today’s workforce. We selected the three below:
Leaders must turn their attention to the human side of business, investing in data-driven talent strategies, skills for the future and driving change adoption. . . andA people-centric approach to transformation is the answer. It decreases friction and drives motivation using strategies backed by behavioral science.
In the end, we conclude with a strategy our CEO consistently strives to acheive: a shared vision for success!
