Doing Life Together: The Future of Networking

In a world that often celebrates hustle, competition, and the never-ending pursuit of growth, we’ve undervalued the most transformative force in life and business: authentic relationships. This talk challenges the traditional, transactional approach to networking and leadership and introduces a new framework—relationship-forward connection—that’s reshaping how we build businesses, communities, and meaningful lives. Rooted in the real-world success of Synergize, a local movement-turned-model based in Carmel, Indiana, this session invites attendees to rethink success through the lens of human connection, shared values, and mission-driven collaboration. Bullet points:• Why transactional networking is outdated—and what to do instead • How relationship-forward leadership transforms business, culture, and communities • The three building blocks of authentic, sustainable connection • Ways to create co-elevating relationships that drive trust and impact • Practical habits to build a network based on purpose—not just proximity
