Session: ACHIEVE THE IMPOSSIBLE followed by the Just Networking Wine Tasting
The events world is a truly competitive, and constantly changing environment. Just like an Olympic athlete and support team, you need to be strategic to reach your finish line. In this keynote, Jeremiah Brown challenges common notions of what it means to lead and to be led in the pursuit of excellence. He shows how to adapt to forces outside of one’s control and stay the course when the pressure is on, all while encouraging a healthy dose of self-compassion and humility. Using vivid real-life Olympic setbacks, failures, and ultimate success, Jeremiah illuminates the true markers for success in any competitive setting.
Session Outcomes:
The final portion of the workshop will include a panel made up of MPI Toronto Chapter members. Moderated by Jeremiah, our panelists will share real and current examples of achieving the impossible.
