CULTIVA Managing Partner James Gordon Appointed to National Small Business Advocacy Advisory Board

We are proud to share that CULTIVA Managing Partner James Gordon has been nominated to serve on the 10,000 Small Businesses Voices Advocacy Advisory Board — a newly established group designed to strengthen the voice of small business owners and ensure their perspectives are heard at the highest levels of government.

This nomination recognizes James’s exceptional leadership and his long-standing commitment to advancing the interests of small businesses across the country. His work reflects CULTIVA’s mission to design solutions that enhance organizational performance, drive innovation, and deliver measurable results.

The 10,000 Small Businesses Voices initiative is dedicated to amplifying the experiences of entrepreneurs and advocating for policies that promote growth and opportunity. The creation of the Advocacy Advisory Board marks an important milestone — enabling alumni to play a more direct role in shaping national priorities and ensuring that policy discussions reflect the realities of small business leaders nationwide.

As a member of the Board, James will collaborate with peers and policymakers during the 10,000 Small Businesses Summit in Washington, D.C., helping to guide advocacy efforts and share insights that connect business strategy, workforce development, and community impact.

At CULTIVA, we believe that leadership in action — the kind that aligns data, strategy, and people — is what drives meaningful progress. James’s appointment embodies this principle and reinforces our ongoing commitment to advancing growth and innovation through collaboration and shared expertise.

We are proud to celebrate this achievement and look forward to supporting his work on the Advocacy Advisory Board as we continue helping organizations and leaders move forward with purpose and precision.
