Event Roundup: Make This Your Year
Events, The Round-Up | February 5, 2017
“This is MY year!” was fervently declared by every attendee following a prompt from speaker Karlyn Percil.
The energy at the Spoke Club was powerful. The whole room was bursting with positive energy for our first event of the year – Make This Your Year: What Can You Do Better in 2017?
Speakers took to the stage with TEDx style talks to discuss what you can do differently in 2017 to #makethisYOURyear.
Anne Marie MacDougall explained the importance of developing a global mindset and acting locally to be successful in leadership positions. Marguerite Orane debunked the myth that you can’t have it all and invited us to create a personalized definition of what “having it all” truly means. Karlyn Percil called us out for making goals that feel too comfortable and asked that we instead make goals that are bold and fearless. Cindy Stradling wrapped up by focusing on taking action and tracking goals with tangible metrics.
The talks were followed by a question and answer panel in which speakers got to share more tips and tricks related to goal setting and personal growth. Throughout the night, each speaker shared their stories and expertise and inspired a room full of ambitious women to reach even higher than before.
