Media and Telecom, Genpact | NAMIC Atlanta, President | Transformational Leader | Team Builder | Connector
Earlier this week, NAMIC - ATLANTA, INC. held our "It Feels Like Summer" Mixer at Microsoft's Atlanta campus. A big thank you to our sponsors - Comcast and Microsoft, and our amazing partners ForbesBLK, REVOLT, and BEN at Comcast. The real success wasn't just the packed crowd; it was the high energy that filled the room. The conversations were so engaging that we almost got kicked out (people just don't know when to go home)! Seeing people make meaningful connections on both the professional and personal level was incredible. It showed that people are starting to understand the importance of building these networks before you need them. It's all about stepping out of your comfort zone and forming meaningful bonds, and it was evident throughout the event. I've been part of NAMIC Atlanta for a while now, and this was by far our best summer mixer. This success wouldn't have been possible without our amazing team: Terance G. Clement, Tiffany Wade, Kenesha Cook, Billie Adams, and Kevin Moore, CSM, CSSGB, ITILv3. Special shoutout to our new family member Monique Davis from ForbesBLK. The strength and value of NAMIC Atlanta were showcased with company representation from Comcast, Microsoft, Cox Communications, Cox Enterprises, Genpact, EssenceMediacom, Warner Bros. Discovery, YouTube, Year Up and The WICT Network Southeast. Become a member or just stay connected with us on LinkedIn: NAMIC - ATLANTA, INC. #community #connections #leaders #beingaboutyourbusiness
