We're so grateful for speakers like Eyad Mubaied speaking at the 2024 IMPACT Summit and sharing their wisdom with our clients. One of many great reviews we received: 'I bought his book! I loved his message and want to bring his ideas into my business mindset.' Eyad's book is available on Amazon and he loves to work with small businesses to create a culture driven organization. #smallbusiness #spacecoastbusiness
