Gamechangers – Opportunity Maker – Wendy Porter

June 26, 2024 • Jenn Glynn and Jason Thomson • Season 8 • Episode 111

Wendy Porter sees opportunity just about everywhere.

And she seems to have a knack for converting those opportunities into special things – events, businesses and one-of-a-kind of experiences.

Get a front row seat on HOW she does that in this week's Gamechanger edition of The Playbook:

Segment 01 – First Event
"You can put on an event, right?" A handful of words can shift the trajectory of your entire career.

Segment 02 – Company Origin Story
How a quick comment in an elevator can set you on an entirely new path in life.

Segment 03 – Getting Laid Off
In the moment, it's terrifying...but Wendy finds a mentor and transforms a layoff into the perfect path forward. (Bonus Gamechanger: The real value of gratitude).

Segment 04 – Governing the Pandemic
Wendy discovers that her industry needs a voice during the Pandemic. How it started. How it's going.
