Event Management

Intentional Connections

How do you get comfortable with being uncomfortable? Having lived on two different islands in Japan, Italy, and the Philippines, Lisa Behrends is a seasoned business strategist and executive with an explorer’s perspective.

Follow your instincts and surround yourself with EP61, as Lisa and Ben are in-studio talking about all the things! This episode’s title pays homage to a quest you’ll hear more about here, called Intentional Connections. Within these community-driven environments, we talk about how to show up, stand out, and following up to thicken an engaged network. This will help you find a healthy slowness to help those you meet, be seen, heard, and valued.

After a special break with another writing from the Roasted Reflections library. In this episode, Ben narrates “Anxiety”. After this mindful moment, Lisa talks about ways to live intentionally. Being aware of how you brew life’s resources, time, and relationships. A powerful closing shines as we close. Enjoy, share with one friend, and thank you for strolling on a thought-filled walk with us.

Blurring Lines

Welcome back to Wisconsin! Ben McDougal was visiting UW Stevens Point to deliver You Don’t Need This Keynote at the 2024 Think Like an Entrepreneur event. As part of a wonderful whirlwind, he visited a local coworking and makerspace to record this special “In The Wild” episode.

Kevin Neuman leads the way as Assistant Dean within the Sentry School of Business and Economics at UW Stevens Point, while Christopher Klesmith is the Neighborhood Planner at the City of Stevens Point. Special thanks to Dr. Elizabeth Martin for coordinating such a unique collision between ecosystem allies!

Together, we discuss how placemaking connects with higher education and how entrepreneurial ecosystems can integrate students. We also celebrate agility within the future of work, ask what is school for, discuss collaboration between educational institutions, and close by solving the power paradox. EP54 is a timeless reminder for those who are blurring the lines between the classroom and community, which paints a reality that activates innovative ways for leaders to interface with the world.
