Connect the Dots: Breakthrough Thinking in a Virtual World
By now we’ve all figured out that there’s no going back to the way things were. It’s a new world—and successfully navigating this new world requires innovative thinking. Okay, fine. We’ve heard that before. But how do you actually do it? How do you come up with the innovative ideas to address new challenges? In this program, 29-time Emmy Award winner Bill Stainton shares nuts and bolts techniques that will turn you into an innovative thinker immediately.
This week's short program featured Patrick Carter speaking on how the Rotary Boys and Girls Club is adapting to meet the needs of youth during the pandemic. Contact Patrick to learn more about how you can help.
Thank you to everyone who joined our Happy Hour this Thursday. Forty members attended, which means we will be donating 80 bed nets to protect families and help curb the spread of malaria.
