February-1

Message from your 2023 Chapter President!



As we continue on in 2023, my hope is that you are starting to feel momentum in your goals for the year. Of course, it is also perfectly normal to struggle a little bit with keeping the motivation up. 

Whether you’ve hit the ground running and are feeling inspired, or you're running out of steam, consider finding a community that supports you. Over the next couple of months, we have some great events coming, from exploring training in a 3D environment to learning how to smash silos in the workplace and hit your goals more effectively. 

If you’ve got ideas or you’d like to get more involved, let us know! Contact us at president@tdgoldengate.org.
