When Alexis Windham Group (AWG)'s sister brand, The Thomas Manor, needed help getting off the ground, Kiisha Jennings and her team stepped right up.
CEO Mary Windham was still working on funding and construction of the Manor itself, but in the meantime she wanted to stat building the entrepreneurial community she envisioned. The Thomas Manor is Mary's latest venture and was going to be both a physical and digital space where entrepreneurs could come to gain community, explore resources, find creative inspiration, and grow their small business.
Yet progress was stalled right along with the construction of the property. KJA knew that building that community took time, so there was no time like the present to get started.
One feature of this Thomas Manor entrepreneurial community would be Mastermind Sessions - long-term group workshops that have a direct impact on business acumen and growth. Kiisha asked - why not start one now?
Kiisha brought together her team of graphic designers, marketing content creators, and powerful leadership speakers to put on a mastermind preview, showcasing in one day the impact of a group workshop on leadership. The Thomas Manor's preview mastermind session was facilitated by Kevin Wayne Johnson of The Johnson Leadership Group and took place at Venture X in Columbia, MD. The session brought together 12 business partners to be in the student seat for a 30-minute session on the elements of leadership and communication.
After that, Kiisha, her team, and Mary's team met in a studio to talk about what made The Thomas Manor special. To explore its unique value proposition (UVP) to the business leaders, creatives, and entrepreneurs of Maryland and beyond. This was an insightful meeting that highlighted the talents and collaboration of our team.
Without losing momentum, Kiisha and her team spearheaded course development with Kevin Johnson, seasoned business leader, and Mary Windham on a first trial Mastermind beginning in 2025. Right away, we got to work promoting this opportunity.
From January to June, this first Mastermind Group's topic was Developing the Leader within You. Each month the group met for 3 hours, over the course of 6 months, to get coaching, learn business best practices, and grow with each other.
As The Thomas Manor's community began climbing, Mary and Kiisha's team also collaborated on brand strategy, repositioning the brand structure of her different resources for entrepreneurs: Everything Planning, A Chick With A Plan, and Alexis Windham Group (AWG).
KJA's services for The Thomas Manor and Mary are ongoing as Mary pursues her dream of becoming Maryland's #1 resource for entrepreneurial community, resources, and growth.
