Would you love to create a clear vision for a new project or personal goal? Want to have clarity for your new direction? Come and meet Julie Stitt, senior manager for COE, for a Vision Board workshop! A vision board helps you to identify your goals and is a creative, engaging way to map your future. It captures ideas in a collage of pictures taken from magazines and photos. At the end of this interactive, fun-filled workshop you will have started to create a Vision Board on your own that will inspire you to take action and move in the direction of your dreams.
Bring your lunch and dessert will be provided.
