Upcoming Webinar: Go Small to Win Big: Small System Changes Can Create Massive Growth

Join The WICT Network and Dr. Dravon James, Founder, Next Step Leadership Academy, as we discuss the benefits of making small changes that can lead to significant growth.

Somewhere in your career journey you’ve likely heard the phrase, “go big or go home.” You may be at a point in your life where you’re reflecting on how much sacrifice success takes, and you’re beginning to ask yourself: Is it worth it? Is there a better way to achieve my goals and live a happy fulfilling life? Dr. Dravon James’ Every Day Peace philosophy encourages leveraging everything that appears in your life to take you to the next level of greatness. It’s time to leverage your feelings of being overwhelmed and exhausted. You can improve your well-being and goal achievement by making small system changes. Go Small to Win Big!
