Special thanks to everyone who came out on a cold Thursday to Good Samaritan Center in the Millsaps Arts district!  More special thanks to DOVIA President Joanna Puddister King for hosting and for the delicious breakfast (and tour of Good Sam!).

Imagine a world where people wake up each morning inspired to go to work…

Imagine a world in which trust and loyalty are the rule, rather than the exception…

This is possible!  It all starts with speaking and acting from your “Why.”  Michele Baker presented “Finding Your Why” from the books and works of Simon Sinek.  Below are resources from that meeting:

• START HERE!!  “Start With Why” Ted Talk (18 minutes)
