    School of Business Women's MBA: Dare to Inspire: Unlocking the Human Code of Inspiration
    The UConn School of Business Office of Alumni Relations invites you to join fellow UConn alumni, current MBA students, and friends for a keynote presentation and reception.

    When it comes to inspiration in work, the perception is you either have it or you don't. Everyone wants to be inspired more, but we struggle to find it and keep it. In this presentation, Allison Holzer will unpack the science of inspiration as a force we have the power to ignite and make the case that it's a valuable resource to be cultivated and managed in companies. You'll learn how to activate engines that reliably generate inspiration, remove roadblocks, and apply a framework to increase your inspiration.


    Allison Holzer is Co-CEO and Chief Innovation Officer at InspireCorps and co-author of "Dare to Inspire: Sustain the Fire of Inspiration in Work and Life"

    Tuesday, March 31, 2020
    6:00- 6:30 PM- Check-In and Pre-Reception
    6:30- 7:45 PM- Panel Discussion and Q&A
