Dream Team – How Corporate Team Building Best Practices Can Help Your Family Unit

In this session, Carin will share practical team-building best practices that can be applied to strengthen your overall family dynamic. Just as successful teams in professional settings require trust, communication, and collaboration, so too does a harmonious and thriving family unit. Carin will cover a variety of techniques that you can apply at home to help your family "gel and excel."
