Description

Wake Up West Coast Banner
Signature Breakfast Series
Networking • Professional Development • Practical Takeaways

Start your morning with coffee, networking, and a full breakfast buffet before diving into a keynote conversation with leaders shaping the future of business. You'll leave feeling not just inspired—but equipped!


About This Month's Topic

In this engaging session, David VanderMolen challenges us to rethink how we show up in conversations. Through compelling stories and practical insights, he introduces three intentional listening habits that help leaders unlock potential in others, strengthen collaboration, and create more productive conversations.

Because leadership isn’t about talking more — it’s about listening better.

What You'll Learn
  • Recognize "anti-listening" habits that weaken communication 
  • Practice three people-helping habits that build trust and empathy
  • Develop listening skills that elevate leadership and problem solving
