Sometimes, the best investments we make in ourselves don’t come from books, webinars, or workshops, but from the adventures we embark upon and the communities we immerse ourselves in. This June, something special is happening in Oulu, Finland, and it’s not just another conference. It's about connecting, learning, and experiencing something genuinely transformative. Heading to Finland's innovation hub, Oulu, and crossing through Rovaniemi, the Arctic gateway, isn't just about geographic locations. It’s about stepping into ecosystems where cultures and ideas meld, fostering an environment ripe for personal and professional growth. In a world racing towards digitalization, finding authentic connection and learning opportunities grounded in real experiences is rare. The European Conference in Oulu is more than an event; it’s a doorway to experiences that challenge, change, and enhance us. So, here’s to discovering the unexpected, to learning in the most unconventional classrooms, and to finding value not in what we experience together. If there’s one thing I’m looking forward to this June, it’s seeing how this journey unfolds for all of us eager to grow, connect, and embrace the fin-tastic opportunities that lie in the heart of Finland. There are now limited places left for the organization, which already has nearly 1500 registrations. Don't forget to visit the website for this unique event that will take place on days when the sun will never set! Thanks for solid work COC team, JCI Oulu / Oulun Nuorkauppakamari ry and JCI Finland - Suomen Nuorkauppakamarit ry members to make it happen!  JCI Europe is already excited to welcome you! #JCI #leadership

🌍 Strengthening Governmental Partnerships 🌍   We had the distinct honor of dining with H.E. Mr. Arnoldo Brenes Castro, the Ambassador of Costa Rica, alongside advisory board member Hugo Berkhout, to explore exciting new opportunities for collaboration. Our discussions covered the progress made since our initial meetings with President Rodrigo Chaves and Minister of Foreign Trade Manuel Tovar, leading to key business engagements in Costa Rica.   Some key highlights from our conversation:                1.        Partnership Progress: We reviewed the progress of our relationship with Costa Rica, including our recent business trip, where we engaged with potential partners.              2.        Demo Plant in Costa Rica: We believe Costa Rica offers an ideal location for a plant, serving as a strategic hub for scaling The Natural Bottle across the Americas.   We are excited to continue building this strong relationship with Costa Rica and look forward to achieving shared success. 💧 Together, we are spearheading a shift in the industry, towards a sustainable, thriving planet for future generations!   #Sustainability #CostaRica #Partnerships #CircularEconomy #Innovation #Growth #TheNaturalBottle

Success often comes from embracing opportunities for growth. An article I read recently highlights the impressive strides Tomohon is making in tourism management and development. It suggests that collaborative efforts among various stakeholders are not just beneficial but essential for sustainable tourism success. One inspiring example mentioned is the strategic partnerships formed that have not only boosted local culture but have also energized the economy. This proactive stance shows that when a community rallies together, incredible transformations can happen. It’s clear that a united approach to tourism can lead to lasting impact. How do you see collaboration working in your industry? I'd love to hear your thoughts or any similar experiences you've had! https://lnkd.in/gPk8ifs5

I am humbled by the overwhelming response to my recent post, which garnered over 48,000 impressions. The comments and discussions it sparked have been enlightening and thought-provoking. Many of you shared your own experiences and perspectives, highlighting both the challenges and the potential for a brighter future in New Zealand. One recurring theme in the comments was the desire for a more positive and proactive approach from our leaders and media. It's clear that many of us believe in the incredible potential of our beautiful country and its people. However, the pervasive negativity can sometimes overshadow our achievements and dampen our collective spirit. This matters because when we focus on our strengths and successes, we inspire each other to strive for more and to believe in our capabilities. Positivity fosters an environment where innovation can thrive. When people feel supported and optimistic, they are more likely to take risks and come up with creative solutions to our challenges. By showcasing our achievements and potential, we can attract talent and investment from around the world, drawing in those who want to be part of our success story. A Call to Action To our leaders and media, highlight the stories of success, resilience, and innovation that abound in our communities. It’s a narrative that reflects the true spirit of New Zealand—a spirit of hope, determination, and endless possibilities. #Positivity #Leadership #NewZealand #Innovation #Community

Last week, our team embarked on an unforgettable offsite journey in the stunning mountains of Abruzzo.⛰️The trek was not just about exploring beautiful landscapes but also about discovering more about each other, strengthening our bonds, and envisioning the future growth of our business. 🚀 Inclusion and trust are the cornerstones of our team’s success. Our time together in Abruzzo reminded us of the power of diverse perspectives and open communication. Whether we were navigating rocky paths or discussing innovative strategies for our business, we learned that our differences make us stronger and more resilient. Key takeaways from our offsite: • Shared Experiences Build Trust: Trekking together fostered a deeper connection, breaking down barriers and creating a safe space for open dialogue. • Valuing Each Voice: Every team member’s insights and experiences contributed to a richer, more comprehensive view of our goals and challenges. • Unified Vision: Our discussions about business growth were infused with a sense of unity and purpose, driven by mutual respect and understanding. I am incredibly proud to be part of a team that values inclusion, trust, and collaboration. Together, we are not just climbing mountains but also scaling new heights in our business journey. Here’s to many more adventures and successes together! 🌟 Vittoria Pisano Mariateresa Pocchiari Angela Mariutto Antonello Casalucci Paolino Cacciatore #TeamBuilding #Inclusion #Trust #BlueCrew

The Danish culture - a campfire mindset... A very insightful presentation on Danish culture and its extreams by Anatolie Cantir. Thank you! I keep discovering new facts even after 18 years in Denmark. I am looking forward to read your book "Danish culture is an extreme" - see the link below, in the first comment.

Super stoked to announce my participation in AEEAPAC Asia Pacific Conference as a speaker with my talented friend and colleague, Krishna Patel. We'll be talking about the importance of building a post program culture and designing interventions for lasting learning retention in the field of outdoor education and experiential learning. In my experience with outdoor education, I've found that post-program interventions are incredibly valuable. They give participants a chance to reflect on their experiences and really integrate what they've learned into their daily lives. Reinforcing skills after the program ensures that knowledge sticks, and ongoing support helps drive meaningful behavior changes—like increased environmental awareness or improved teamwork. Plus, these interventions foster a sense of community among participants, which is so important. Gathering feedback also plays a key role in refining future programs, making them even more impactful. Ultimately, these post-program activities focus on personal growth, helping everyone become more resilient and effective leaders. It’s all about enhancing the educational journey and supporting lasting change! See you there!
