Networks thrive with a mix of “come one, come all” activities and smaller group connections. After our August affinity group kickoff for members who support encore seekers, we’re getting ready for a fall meeting — and helping members connect in other ways.
We’re scheduling our fall meeting – members, check dates here. Why sign up? We’ll develop 2020 plans and identify short-term opportunities. One priority: identifying smaller-group topics of interest, for instance “making the 50+ Expo an encore-friendly event,” “resources for one-to-one coaching,” “entrepreneurship training best practices,” “making my program more multigenerational” and whatever generates heat in our meeting.
Not a member? Sign up here.
Don’t wait for the meeting. Take action now.
