Our team recently gathered in Louisville for a two-day huddle focused on enhancing our ability to connect. We explored our team's predictive index personality types to improve our communication, heard from key philanthropy connectors in the area and engaged with our community partner, Home of the Innocents. During our visit to Home of the Innocents, we toured the facility, learned about the impact of our grant and participated in a volunteer activity of building a garden bed for the facility. We also connected through presentations from our Network Resource Groups and participated in a day-long "Communicating Effectively" workshop with Fred Garcia from Logos Consulting, where we studied techniques to improve our communication and enhance our messaging. These experiences are helping us develop our strategy, grow together and learn to listen more effectively to those we serve! #Philanthropy #HumanaFoundation
