776: Forge Connections That Help You Thrive, with Neri Karra Sillaman

We all know that the right connections can help a ton in our careers, but how do we actually get more intentional about forging the connections that are going to be most meaningful and sustainable? In this episode, the key lessons from immigrant entrepreneurs and how their successes can help all of us thrive. This is Coaching for Leaders, episode 776. Produced by Innovate Learning, Maximizing Human Potential. Greetings to you from Orange County, California.

This is Coaching for Leaders and I'm your host, Dave Stehoviak. Leaders aren't born. They're made. And this weekly show helps leaders thrive at key inflection points. One of the ways that we thrive in our work, in our careers, in the inflection points of leadership is having key connections and relationships in our lives, in our work that will help us to grow, that will be there to support us, to pull us up when we're knocked down, and also

to share so many ideas and resources. Today I'm so glad to welcome a guest expert who has spent so much work of really researching some of the best practices and how we can learn from those who have come before us and really explored some fascinating connections in how we can help connections to thrive. I'm so pleased to welcome Neri Kara Silliman to the show. She is a refugee turned entrepreneur, academic, and author whose work focuses on the importance of resilience, purpose, and vision in business and life.
