That Affect Small Businesses
An interactive workshop focused on legal issues and Supreme Court decisions
that affect small businesses and entrepreneurs will be held on June 22 at
Boise State University. It is designed for lawyers, MBA students and small
business owners and managers.
“Diagnosis and Cure of the Most Serious Legal and Ethical Issues Facing
Every Business Owner, Manager and Entrepreneur: A Holistic View” will be
held from 9 a.m.-3 p.m. June 22 in the Student Union Lookout Room. The
workshop presenter is Stephanie Huneycutt Bardwell from Christopher Newport
University.
This five-hour workshop provides an intelligent, interactive review of the
top legal and ethical issues facing small businesses and entrepreneurs in
2007. The emphasis is on how to recognize costly, dangerous, unethical and
illegal business practices. The session concludes with hands-on development
of low cost/no cost solutions to correct these issues.
Bardwell has a law degree from the Golden Gate University School of Law in
San Francisco and a master of laws in taxation from the College of William
and Mary, Marshall-Wythe School of Law, in Williamsburg, Va. She is the
chair of Management and Marketing at Christopher Newport University, a past
chair of Management and Economics, and a director of the Small Business
Institute at Christopher Newport University in Virginia. Bardwell is also a
certified small business counselor and a Sam Walton fellow.
Her research interests include ethics, law, small business enterprise and
intellectual property, with particular interest in Supreme Court decisions
that affect small business, international business and entrepreneurship.
The workshop is sponsored by Delta Epsilon Chi and the Center for Business
and Management in the Selland College at Boise State. Delta Epsilon Chi is
an organization for marketing students whose members compete at the annual
DEC International Career Conference. The workshop is a fund-raising event
for student members who will travel to Orlando, Fla., for the 2007
