Event description

Learn how your intentions for business success get moved forward by holding them in the background.

Here's what to expect from the Contribution Game:

  • Introduce yourself to two people you don't know
  • Find out who people are — really — not just their title
  • Find out what they're committed to — in business and beyond
  • Leave your agenda behind
  • See how you can make a difference

These are your questions for the evening:

  • How can I help?
  • How can I support?
  • Who do I know? Do I have contacts or resources? Is there someone else I've talked to in the room that can support this person?

Show up with a giving mindset and something to write with/on — unless you have a photographic memory!

The Poco Wine Room has phenomenal options for imbibing, and owner Peter Moore has generously offered happy hour pricing for Biznik members all night!

Learn more about how business guru Matthew Ferry directs the Contribution Game. His Inspired Action workshop in January was the impetus for this event.

    Hi Karen. So sorry to cancel on you this late, but I-90 was at a standstill. There's no way I would have made it there before 7pm. Hope everyone will have fun.

    Hi, Karen,

    Please let me know if you decide to host this event again in the future. My summer booked up too fast for me to be able to attend. Too bad--it sounded like a fun way to meet new people.

    Best, Shannon
