Our Vision: To enrich the lives of SEB clients by teaching them the required business skills and knowledge to develop a successful business, and providing them with support and encouragement they need to realize their dream of becoming successfully self-employed. Our Mission: To drive growth in small business through a meaningful, practical and personal support program that enables clients to become familiar with self-employment so that at least 75% of these clients remain successfully self employed 24 months after their start date. Our Values: Entrepreneurship: We value the spirit of the entrepreneur; the intangible quality that allows individuals to see opportunities, start new ventures and cause economic growth. We consider it an honour to work with such people. Personalization: We value our clients' individual dreams, temperaments, personalities, skill sets and timelines; although they have similar goals, no two share the same path. We personalize our service to meet the unique needs of each client. We also endeavour to develop a personal and meaningful relationship with each client, built on trust and the common vision of a successful business launch. Prudence: We value caution and restraint during start-up. We realize that all of our clients have limited cash, resources and time. Therefore, we strive to plan and act within reasonable limits. Tenacity: We value "stick-to-itiveness' and the power of personal choice. We realize that all of our clients are human and experience doubts, failures and losses. Therefore, we work hard at encouraging them to keep pressing on toward their goals despite setbacks. Collaboration: We value teamwork and the contributions of others. No one person has all the answers, so we strive to teach the skills of asking, listening and learning.
