Building our network at Chamber Connection! 🤝

Our West Central MN CEO had an outstanding morning at the Willmar Lakes Area Chamber of Commerce Chamber Connection on Friday at RELCO in Willmar!

Over 50 regional business representatives in one room, eager to connect with our young entrepreneurs. A perfect reminder that your NETWORK is your NET WORTH.

This event pushes our students outside their comfort zone and builds real-world soft skills:

✨ Public speaking
✨ Small talk
✨ Handshakes & eye contact
✨ Making lasting connections

Thank you to the Willmar Lakes Area Chamber and RELCO for hosting, and to every business leader who took time to invest in our students. These are the connections that will carry them through CEO and beyond!
