COACH CONNECT
SHARING WISDOM
Coach Connect is an opportunity for the Clifton Foundation’s Global Builder Network to connect with entrepreneur and business leaders.
What are your current goals? What support do you need to reach them? Coach Connect is designed to encourage alumni to take actionable steps towards their dreams through candid conversation and mentorship around their life goals. The Clifton Foundation hosts this coaching event twice a year– the next Coach Connect will take place throughout the week of May 17th-22nd.
