Hamilton Career Network Virtual Event

The best professional communications practices, even before COVID, went beyond articulating strategy, updates, and profit and loss statements.

In a post-COVID world of distancing and remote interaction, how can we stay connected? Join Hamilton alumnus and visionary Michael Tennant '04 as he walks us through how we can stay connected and build empathy virtually and within our groups through an apparently simple game of cards that he has created. Those in attendance for this event will be entered into a raffle to win an Actually Curious card game.
