Jan 16, 6:00 – 7:00 PM (UTC)

Orange County

This joyful workshop cultivates a culture of empathy by building meaningful bridges between people in a fun, unexpected way. The heart of our workshop is “Super Secret,” a playful yet powerful twist on the pen-pal relationship, designed to sidestep some of the subtle biases we all bring to our workplaces & communities, and build a new relationship founded on character rather than characteristics.

About this event

Are you looking to cultivate deeper and more meaningful connections in both your personal and professional life? Join this upcoming one-hour interactive online workshop to equip yourself with the skills to build genuine relationships with people in a purposeful and unexpected way.

Culture First partner, Make Believe Works, has designed a workshop that focuses on building empathy and community through their playful and powerful twist on the pen-pal relationship called "Super Secret."

SPECIAL NOTE: There will be Breakout Rooms. 

We're all used to multitasking while on webinars. 

We do that all the time. It's usually fine. But not for this one. 

Super Secret isn't a passive workshop. Because it's all about connecting with other people, we ask that everyone be willing to actively participate the whole time. After all, if you want to connect, you've got to be present. 

But don't worry - it will be easy. It will be fun. And it will be worthwhile!


Don't miss this opportunity to develop your emotional intelligence and build lasting connections. REGISTER TODAY!

We'll see you Tuesday, January 16th at 10:00 am PT!
