Celebrate Its Importance and Recognize Its Challenges

Labor Day, celebrated on the first Monday of September in the United States, is a time to honor the immense contributions of workers. This holiday not only commemorates the achievements of the labor movement but also underscores the critical role that labor plays in the economy. As we celebrate Labor Day, it is essential for business owners and individuals alike to appreciate the importance of labor while recognizing the potential pitfalls of viewing labor as the sole means of making a living. Understanding the true nature of labor helps us see it as the backbone of maintenance for both our personal lives and our businesses.

In the dynamic and technically interconnected world of the 21st century, human influence is a critical determinant of success.

We invite you to join us at the 21c Museum Hotel in Chicago on September 24 for a workshop focusing on "Practicing the Human Touch," a trend highlighted by futurist Bernard Marr in Forbes Magazine and the latest McKinsey report.  

As automation advances, the ability to foster successful human interactions becomes a vital differentiator, and with five generations working together for the first time in history, the need for effective communication and collaboration is greater than ever.

At the workshop, we will practice the skills that will set you apart and explore real-world scenarios and practical strategies for nurturing and applying these skills in your professional journey. Gain insights into why organizations are investing in this critical differentiator. Develop these attributes and learn how to adapt to this transformative shift in the business landscape. 

Influential U co-founders John Patterson and Kirkland Tibbels deliver an immersive, practical experience that will elevate your professionalism and equip you to thrive in a world where the human touch remains irreplaceable. This workshop will help you cultivate essential people skills needed to excel in 2024 and beyond.
