SUMMARY:SCORE: Stop Selling\, Start Connecting - 7 Steps to Confident Conversations That Convert
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, February 12\, 2026 (Online Only) \nTime: 10:00 – 11:30 a.m. CST \nSCORE: Stop Selling\, Start Connecting – 7 Steps to Confident Conversations That Convert \nDescription: Sales isn’t about pressure. It’s about people. If you’ve ever believed in your offer but froze when it was time to talk price\, ask for the sale\, or handle objections\, you’re not alone. Most small business owners and sales professionals were never taught how to sell in a way that feels natural\, confident\, and authentic. You overtalk. You hesitate. You worry about being pushy. People don’t buy when they understand you. They buy when they feel understood. That’s where the CONVERT Framework changes everything. In this high-impact workshop\, Stop Selling\, Start Connecting\, you’ll learn how to: \n✅ Build trust faster using the Connect & Observe phases of the CONVERT Framework. \n✅ Identify and adapt to different DiSC communication styles so your message lands every time. \n✅ Ask powerful\, curiosity-driven questions that uncover real buying motives. \n✅ Handle objections with confidence—not pressure. \n✅ Turn genuine conversations into loyal\, paying clients. \nIf you’re ready to ditch the awkward scripts\, close with confidence\, and start 2026 strong—this is your playbook. Join us for “Stop Selling\, Start Connecting” and learn how to turn conversations into contracts—one confident connection at a time.

SUMMARY:APEX Accelerator: Gen-AI in Government Procurement
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, February 12\, 2026 (Online Only) \nTime: 12:00 – 1:30 p.m. CST \nAPEX Accelerator: Gen-AI in Government Procurement \nDescription: Generative AI can be incredibly useful—until it isn’t. Join David Timm (Co-Chair of Burr & Forman’s AI Committee and Chair of the Federal Bar Association’s Bid Protest Committee) for a candid reality check on how large language models (LLMs) behave in legal and government contracting contexts—and how to use them without getting burned. You’ll learn: \n\nThe three core LLM risks: hallucinations\, sycophancy\, and privacy/privilege exposure\nWhat current performance data shows about leading chatbots’ failure rates\, and how often they repeat false information\nGovCon examples where over-reliance on AI has led to legal sanctions\, dismissed protests\, and loss of professional credibility\nClear dos and don’ts for using AI for brainstorming and issue-spotting without compromising confidential data or falling for plausible-looking hallucinations\n\nYou’ll leave with a clear understanding of how LLMs work\, where they tend to fail\, and how to use them responsibly in GovCon and legal workflows. Walk away with practical guardrails you can apply immediately to protect sensitive information and avoid costly missteps. Target Audience: Small business owners\, C-Suite executives\, proposal writers\, and in-house counsel \nCost: Free \nLocation: Online \nQuestions contact: Veronica Doga\, vdoga@unomaha.edu 402-554-6253 \nRegistration Link: https://www.sba.gov/event/79969
