VIRTUAL: Pivot with Purpose. Greenwich Library Virtual Event




Now more than ever, the future success and survival of local organizations and businesses rely on how deeply and purposefully we have connected with our communities. This panel discussion with thought leaders and investors in the profit and not-for-profit sectors will address how we can rethink and reposition ourselves to take action as individuals and members of the Greenwich community. Panelists will address how we can recover from the current pandemic, stronger, better, and more resilient than ever. Bring your questions!

This event is co-sponsored by Woman Owned Greenwich.

Katherine Warman Kern, Co-Founder Comradity, is an insightful analyst who has pioneered profitable new markets and revenue streams for clients and her own premium flexible office and meeting space, COMRADITY, in Stamford, CT. Her career began at Leo Burnett working with clients like P&G and United Airlines. The current crisis is revealing how important it is to “feel safe”. She is concerned that organizations’ resilience is at risk, in general, because employee morale, outside partner reliability, and customer commitment aren’t as strong as they used to be. As business leaders and investors experience the high cost of regenerating resilience during this crisis, she hopes that the financial value of incentivizing a healthy “ecosystem balance sheet” will become clear.
