Talks will be followed by structured attendee networking around the same theme.
It's obvious that working together & being human is especially needed & relevant in our current political landscape - most importantly as we ramp up to the 2018 midterm elections. Attendees will gain insight & inspiration from our speakers' stories, as well as get actionable advice & takeaways from the attendee networking portion of the event.
We're making some space at LMHQ to consider what it means to be working together at this current moment as we engage in the stories of our amazing speakers. We hope you'll gather with us to breathe some new life into your creative ideas, connect with others, & get some high-fives in the process!
