Why It Matters

Many of life’s biggest challenges and best solutions stem from working with others. Our upcoming sessions will draw on shared insights and experiences to explore key behavioral concepts that shape our daily interactions.

Whether you're negotiating tough deals, advocating for clients, collaborating with colleagues, or just butting heads with a pain in the neck, these sessions will help sharpen your interpersonal skills and improve professional outcomes. Join us as an attendee, panelist, or contributor by submitting scenarios for discussion. Together, we’ll build the social intelligence needed to tackle real-world interpersonal challenges with confidence and success.
