Join Gatewood and the rest of the the MPI-DC crew on Friday April 1st as the topic turns to “Networking!” According to Gatewood, “if you are looking for a quick sale, then networking probably isn’t the best investment of your time. But if you are looking to build partnerships and other relationships that will further the objectives of your organization, then nothing does that better than networking.”
The show’s special guest is Leon Gatewood whose non-profit, HOLLA, has partnered with the Anson County school system to present the AHS Youth Career Connect (YCC) Motivation and Mentoring Retreat on April 8, 9:00 a.m. til 1:30 p.m. Robert Gatewood will be one of the mentoring motivators.
YCC is a President Obama initiative designed to retool the high school experience for America’s youth, challenging schools to scale up innovative models that personalize teaching and learning so that students stay on track to graduate with the knowledge and skills they’ll need to succeed in college and in careers, exposing them to learning that links their studies in school to future college and career pathways – especially in the critically important fields of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
