Impact Through Community

Impact Through Storytelling
Host: Eboni Elle

Impact Through Connection
Host: Junior Ofori

Info: Channeling the championship mindset of Junior Ofori’s Popularity Is a Sport, this high-energy session shows you how to treat networking like a game: you’ll learn to scout the playing field (identify key players), execute strategic power plays (openers that break the ice), pivot mid-game (adjust tactics on the fly), and track your wins on a personal popularity scoreboard. Walk away with the playbook to recruit genuine allies, defend your reputation under pressure, and close every interaction with a champion’s handshake.
