In this week's episode my good friend Kent Lane shares his perspective on being a public servant, the challenges related to transitioning from an active duty to civilian mindset, and why he's so passionate about working with our local small business community. Kent recently joined the City of Phoenix Equal Opportunity Department after serving many years at the Arizona Department of Transportation in their Business Engagement and Compliance Office.

Kent explains the difference between the programs at the City versus what he and his team developed at ADOT.  We also discuss ACDBE versus DBE versus SBE and SBC. If you've ever wondered about the alphabet soup of small business programs, here's your chance to learn more.
