Our labor and leisure can be like a forest, growing, thriving, and set up to host connectivity.

In this talk, Vikas and Priya Narula will discuss the incredible parallels between forests and communities and how to know if yours is thriving or not (beyond just financials).

Combining technology, real-time experiential exercises with cutting-edge research in the field of leadership, team development, and forest ecosystems, Vikas and Priya take their audiences on a journey into the forest of the workplace and beyond.

Leave this session feeling empowered, renewed, and illuminated.  Come away with clear, actionable steps to make your life, work, and community richer and more vibrant.

Grow the forest – in your life, work, and community.
