Thank you to our special guests and session leaders! Longtime friend of Sandy Stelling '91 of Alaska Airlines led impactful conversations about strengths and assets on Monday morning while the afternoon saw Adam Goldstein '16 '17G share more about his story from Lehigh University to co-founder of workbistro (our generous host for the day!).
