Help shape the future of small business in Chicagoland by sharing insights on current challenges, trends, and opportunities.
iLead Chicagoland Small Business Outlook Study
For the third year in a row, the Institute for Leadership Excellence and Development (iLEAD) is conducting the Chicagoland Small Business Outlook study. In partnership with Chicago’s Chamber of Commerce, iLEAD is studying the current trends and issues of small businesses in the Chicago metro area. iLEAD is recruiting small business owners and operators to complete a 5-minute survey about how their businesses are performing and how they expect the next 12 months to progress. The study itself is open through July 4, and iLEAD will generate a report summarizing the results and share it with the business and civic community in late fall.
The iLEAD research team asks you to forward this information to your favorite small business owners and operators and encourage them to complete the survey. All participants will receive a free copy of the study report and a list of useful small business resources.
