THIS IS CANCELLED, WE WILL BE REPLACING SOON

Strengthen your empathy muscle with Michael Ventura of the award winning New York City-based design practice Sub Rosa. Michael will push participants to step outside their comfort zone and embody a new perspective. This approach requires an openness and desire to skip the small talk and jump right in. Merging insights and action to drive change, each participant will learn ways to use empathy as part of their daily tool kit.
