RISE is for the firm owner who is ready to be proactive and move forward with a plan for firm growth.

You will receive 2.5 days of intense learning and workshopping specifically on your firm. Each person has a different path for the future, and RISE is designed so each attendee can work on their own path individually as well as come together for learning. You will also have opportunities for one-on-one time with Jason Blumer, CPA & Julie Shipp.

• Jason Blumer, CPA
• Julie Shipp
• Karen Reyburn

Each session will begin with teaching time and then a workshop time to break out and work on your own.

When RISE is over, you will walk away with many ideas, but we encourage you to focus on one or two to actively work on as you return to your firm.

If you are looking for long-term support from other firm owners just like you, we encourage you to
join Thriveal. We can also hook you up with an accountability partner to walk through your goals together.

You can also get one-on-one coaching with Jason and Julie for more specific support with accountability after the event.
