Playing to your team's strengths and abilities, with Lindsay Wrege Apr 04, 2023

"What is something kind you have done for someone lately?"

But actually, they're just telling me what they need and they're asking me if I can meet that need?"...

How do you manage Gen Z? With Camp Kanata Director, Ryan Eves Feb 14, 2023

I feel this deeply. It is hard to imagine when we started out where we would be today. C and D was a hobby and a promise of a dream. It didn’t really have to make any money, it just needed to fuel our creativity and expose us to an industry that we hoped we  would one day be a part of....

What a force! It was so inspiring meeting Anne and talking about her journey to becoming the Triangle CEO of the year!
