About Us: Supplier Diversity & Development

What is AAAME?

AAAME is a two-year business mentoring program which is a combination of business skill training, one-on-one mentoring, group projects and individualized goal setting and action plans. AAAME CEO's meet at least twice a month as a group, at least once a month with their assigned advisors and once a month with the AAAME Director.

The AAAME program combines the following elements:

  • It is a two-year commitment.
  • There is no cost to the AAAME participant.
  • It utilizes the resources of several community based organizations as well as individuals who  contribute to small business.
  • It is a combination of classroom training, group projects and individualized company action plans and meetings.
  • It is a personalized approach toward mentoring which holds the business owner accountable for his or her own success.
  • There is a continual assessment of the AAAME participant's implementation of the program elements as it relates to the two-year business targets.
  • It is peer-to-peer mentoring via the CEO twice a month meetings.

While these factors are unique and valued in the community, AAAME is really about the successful implementation of solid business practices, utilizing a wide variety of delivery methods and the continual assessment of each AAAME participant's progress in the program.
