Program Topic: The Power of Collaboration
Join us for our monthly Business Luncheon where we shed some light on specific topics and have opportunities to expand your network.
What if the key to success wasn't about outpacing others, but seeing ourselves as partnering with them? True collaboration thrives on trust, not fear, and builds bridges instead of walls. In this talk, Communication Coach, Dr. Heidi Petak, will uncover how to overcome the fear that breeds toxic competition, embrace trust-based communication, and unleash the power of collaboration to transform your relationships and community.
3 Takeaways
- Identify trust-based vs. fear-based communication strategies
- Learn powerful communication tools you can apply today
- Shape a collaborative community for mutual success
