Local entrepreneur CJ McClanahan recently hosted ThriveMap, a 2014 planning workshop designed to help local professionals make a personal connection with their goals. This is fourth time he has hosted this event.
“Everyone has been through a goal-setting exercise,” stated McClanahan. “Unfortunately, for most people, this is a hallow exercise that rarely results in a change in behavior. Developing an emotional connection is the key to change.”
This year, all of the proceeds from ticket sales went directly to support the mission of Shepherd Community Center, a Near Eastside nonprofit that is committed to “breaking the cycle of poverty.” The event raised nearly $30,000. McClanahan has been a longtime supporter of Shepherd Community and said he believed that this event provided a great opportunity to “get focused for 2014 and make a significant difference in our community.”
ThriveMap was held at the Forum Conference and Events Center. Event details can be found at www.ThriveMap.com.
