SUMMARY:Showing Up as Yourself: A Real Talk on Leadership and Belonging” hosted by the Roux Institute
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a fireside chat where Claude Silver and Jana Rich will lead us through a conversation exploring how we can all “Be Ourselves at Work.”\nNo matter our role\, seniority\, or generation\, we all want the same things: to feel valued\, trusted\, respected\, and like we belong. When we stop performing and start being\, we unlock our capacity to connect\, thrive\, and do our best work. Not only is this shift liberating—it’s the antidote to burnout\, an end to the myth of “fitting in\,” and a proven path to building bold\, human-first teams.
