 FAQs

  • There is no fee for this program, and Coordinators are not paid. The benefits of participating are the training, network, and access to opportunities that come from being a Principled Business Coordinator.

  • Over the course of a year, the bare minimum requirements of Coordinators are to:

    1. Organize at least 1 Speaker Event

    2. Host at least 1 Incubator Day

    3. Build your own business or develop a project to advance the business you're in such that it's aligned with the principles of capitalism

    4. Participate in all trainings and check-ins

    5. Serve as an ambassador for Principled Business

    From there, Coordinators have additional opportunities to advance the movement and receive support from Principled Business in pursuit of doing so.

  • You should expect to dedicate at least 5 hours/month to the Coordinator role.

  • Principled Business is building a movement, and events are a core part of building a movement. That is why we emphasize different types of events so much in the Coordinator role. However, if you believe you can serve the movement in some other way, such as by writing, leading trainings, or something else, please reach out let us know in your application. Specializations are possible.

  • We will review applications as they come in. Anyone who we believe is a strong candidate will receive an interview. From there, the top candidates will be invited to the virtual training program. Only those who satisfactorily complete the training will become Principled Business Coordinators.

  • Principled Business provides Coordinators with a Principled Business email, templates for organizing events, access to our network of business leaders to speak and provide mentorship, invitations to both Principled Business and other invitation-only events, and finances to put on programs expanding the movement.
