Steve Trecha | Leadership Culture & Characteristics

There are many great reasons for entrepreneurs like you to belong to the Small Business Association of Michigan.Steve Trecha is Chief Results Officer for Integrated Strategies, Inc. and a member of SBAM’s Board of Directors.“I've got great respect for for business owners, small business owners, and the way that they have been able to contribute, and I get to learn how they think about things, I get to learn how they do that. And I think that's number one.”Steve also admires the way that the SBAM organization operates.“If you look at the leadership team at SBAM, and you look at how they think about what they do, they really run like a small business. And they really do that in a way not only to best service their members across the state, but they do that in a way where they're continually improving how small businesses can attract, how small businesses can do work. And I find that really, really exciting. It's not an organization that sits on the shelf and and basically beats their chest -- and they full well could do that because they're the most influential small business organization in the state of Michigan. They are the go-tos, and it's neat to be affiliated and it's neat to learn.”Leverage the value of your involvement with the Small Business Association of Michigan.

There are many great reasons for entrepreneurs like you to belong to the Small Business Association of Michigan.“When you look at the Small Business Association of Michigan, and if you say, I'm going to compare this to other associations, you are probably under serving your thoughts.”Steve Trecha is the co-founder of The Cozy Corner of Ogemaw County, a collaborative project that unites small businesses to mutually attract customers and boost the local economy. He also serves on SBAM’s board of directors.“You have an association here that's really laser focused on helping small businesses, and it could either be through a service offering or product offering. What I find really, really valuable are the networking opportunities because I learned every day as a board member, when I am either attending a work session, or I'm in discussion with another small business owner, I see my job as a business leader to continue to learn, continue to leverage, continue to apply, continue to drive results. These are people that do that, and I think there's 26,000 members in the Small Business Association of Michigan. My gosh, just think about if you were to tap one of those just once a week and pick up a new idea. There's 50 new ideas. What if you did that a couple of times a week, there's hundreds of new ideas. Then you go back inside the operations of SBAM, and what you find is a really, really high quality, high knowledge, high intensity staff that are really focused on the mission, the mission of SBAM, and these folks not only can provide great insights in terms of ideas. But also they're continually looking at how do you share these ideas? How do you leverage these ideas? How do you do this in a way that can drive economic development for small businesses, and as a consequence, obviously continue to build Michigan. Think about it. In Michigan, approximately 50% of the people that are employed are employed in small businesses, over 98% of the businesses in Michigan are small businesses. So it just logical that the focus should be on continuing to build small businesses in the state and SBAM does a great job doing it. In fact, I encourage all small businesses continually to become part of this to become even if it's just a matter of getting online and reading about what they're up to. And then as you have time to get involved and get engaged, see what you can learn and also see what you can contribute back.” Leverage the value of your involvement with the Small Business Association of Michigan.
