AFWA PR & Scholarship Award Dinner – Thursday, July 16, 2020

July 16, 2020 @ 5:30 pm 8:00 pm

Join us for our annual Public Relations (PR) & Scholarship Award Dinner. If you can only attend one event this year, this is the one!

Our event will be at Harbor House located in Seaport Village. James Dahlberg, General Manager has assured me that they are able to provide a safe environment for us to hold our annual event. Harbor House will allow us to use the larger room and will be setting up large tables and will only seat 4 to a table to keep social distancing and will have the tables at 6 feet intervals. Mask will be required until you have been seated at your table and will be required if you move about. You can also request to be seated with certain people. Harbor House will let me know if there are any changes due to the Covid-19 and I’ll pass this along to all of those who plan on attending as we get closer to our July 16th date.

Agenda

This year we are honored to have Barbara Gunning who will speaking on Introvert or Extrovert? Learn the differences between Introverts and Extroverts and why it is important for your team.

At this event will be hosting our Scholarship Winners so you will get the opportunity to meet them and learn how much you’ve helped each of them just by purchasing Scholarship tickets each month.

Guest Speaker

Introvert or Extrovert?

Who’s happier? More successful? Valued more?

According to Susan Cain, best-selling author, the innate preference between introvert and extrovert is as important in defining your personality as gender or race. Since the population is equally split between Extroverts and Introverts, there is a good chance that you’re interacting with your polar opposite every day. Knowing how to bring out the best in others is a critical component of leading a high-performing team. Learn the differences between Introverts and Extroverts and why it is important for your team.
