Join us for an eye-opening Culture Conversation with founders Will Turon and Kai McKinney, who built and scaled a company to seven-figure revenue — and then decided it was time to move on. Will and Kai will share their story, reflecting on the impact of the conversations they had — and the ones they didn’t — about roles, vision, and expectations, and how these shaped their company's future.

Special thanks to our friends at Ohio Health for graciously hosting us at their new space called, The Homestead!

🧐 "What should I expect?"

• Insights into how transparent communication helps build trust and clarity within a team.

• A candid discussion about how delaying essential conversations can affect company culture and leadership.

• Practical strategies for approaching tough conversations that enhance team dynamics and leadership effectiveness.

• Real examples of the conversations Will and Kai postponed around role definition, expectations, and vision alignment—and how they influenced their startup’s journey.

• Plenty of Food and Drinks
