Who Says There Is No Such Thing As A Free Lunch?

Free Lunch for You + a Friend!    

register button with heart  
We wanted to show you how much we LOVE our members (it is Valentine’s Day, after all), so we’ve organized a free member lunch at one of our favorite restaurants, Cuba Libre (thanks to our sponsor One Medical Group). That’s right. Members pay zip, zilch, zero because we’re picking up the tab! All you have to do is register in advance.

Then we thought, “wait a minute – this is SITC! What can we do to make a free lunch even better?” So, members may also register a friend for free! This is an amazing opportunity to deepen friendships you already have and expand your network of A-list women, too!

Of course, you’ll need to register soon. Seating is limited and we don’t want you to miss out on the fun! Mark your calendar, put your name on the list, and we’ll see you there!

What really motivates you? How do you build on what you know you’ve got, and connect that to what you know you want? How do you keep up the energy and enthusiasm to make a difference? One word. Mojo.

Join us this February as the remarkable Renee Lewis, President of the Pensare Group, shows us how to “Power Up Your Mojo”! This fascinating interactive session where you will discover how to maximize your own personal motivators that will drive the outcomes you expect, desire and deserve! Together we will work through where and how you find the energy to persevere and make progress towards the critical goals you have identified for 2012.
ABOUT RENEE LEWIS
Renee LewisRenee Lewis is the President of the Pensare Group, an organization focused on helping leaders achieve meaningful results through alignment and build teams that excel in performing against common goals. With more than 25 years of building successful businesses and business units she has a passion to share “survival” techniques with others who can use them to create their own competitive advantage.

Trained as a software engineer (recovering), Renee has worked across broad ranges of industries including high-tech, e-learning, insurance and finance, pharmaceutical and healthcare industries.  She has always leveraged her love of software engineering principles (that is, designing for efficiency and effectiveness) and getting things done through others (that is, managing difficult teams). Her most interesting adventures were turning around and then selling a technology company to Cerner, and creating a viable and productive team after a four-company merger targeting eLearning markets.

After reflecting on the fact she’s been directly involved in leading eight start-up companies, Renee finally realized she has a particular love for entrepreneurship and creating thriving businesses that are also fun to work in. As such, she is also the co-Founder of the Path Forward Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship where she manages and instructs this year-long ACTiVATE Program, an entrepreneurship program for women who want to build a technology-based business that grows beyond one.  Path Forward is the 2011 – National WIPP AT&T Innovators of the Year award.
