"Leaders are everywhere around you."💭 -2024 MILLSUMMIT Attendee The #MILLSUMMIT provides an environment of resources where individuals and emerging professionals can discover and develop their leadership potential. Through workshops, panels, keynotes, and networking opportunities, the conference empowers attendees to recognize the leadership qualities within themselves and others. Leadership is not limited to titles but is present in everyday actions and choices by individuals at all levels and in all roles within our community. 👤 #MILLSUMMIT #DELeaders

The arts are not only a source of inspiration but also a dynamic engine driving Delaware’s economy!🎨✨ Our "Business of the Arts" panel—featuring Molly Giordano, Anastasia Jackson, Nataki Oliver, and Joshua Hollingworth—discussed how creative entrepreneurs can thrive. With over 18,000 jobs tied to the creative sector, supporting and expanding these businesses is key. Whether you’re starting your first creative venture or looking to grow, now is the time to tap into the resources and community available to you 👉 Such as DelawareScene.com and Out & About Magazine to keep businesses connected across the state, while the Delaware Division of the Arts offers crucial support to elevate your creative endeavors! #MILLSUMMIT #Business #Arts #DELeaders

Networking is more than a rehearsed elevator pitch—it's about authenticity, building meaningful relationships, and knowing your 'why.' At #MILLSUMMIT, Keynote Speaker Denée Crumrine @dangdahnay gave us practical tools to boost our confidence in connecting with others. She reminded us that success in networking goes beyond the 30-second pitch—it's about engaging in meaningful conversations that create lasting value. Yes, networking can feel intimidating or even transactional at times, but with practice, it becomes easier to move past surface-level interactions. The more you practice your handshake, dive into real conversations, and embrace uncomfortable situations, the stronger and more valuable your connections will become! 🌱 #Networking #ConfidencetoConnect #MILLSUMMIT2024
