Theme: Fear of the Unknown – Step into the unknown and discover what’s waiting on the other side of fear.

We spend so much of our lives hoping and praying for the things we want to come true—the new job, the new house, the right relationship, or little Jimmy getting accepted into your alma mater. But when those moments come closer, another question often shows up: What’s next?

One of the biggest and most misunderstood fears we face is the fear of the unknown. At this Positivity Summit, we will jump into the fire—not literally—and talk about how to move through that fear, face uncertainty with courage, and discover what is waiting on the other side.

This October, Embrace the Unknown.

About Organizer

Cornell Thomas Organizer name

Two decades ago, I was offered my first professional leadership position. I was offered the position of head men’s basketball coach at my alma mater Sussex County Community College. At that time, I had never coached a team before in my life, I had no idea what it truly meant to lead people, and I didn’t have a clue about how impactful culture was regarding the success or failure of a team. In those 6 years at SCCC, I experienced the lowest of lows and the highest of highs. I learned that leadership and culture weren’t a destination but an ever-evolving journey. My professional coaching journey has expanded over 20 years, and I am still searching for how to be a more effective leader daily
