Breakout Room 3 (Open to All): Intro to Boundless with Andy Bailey Building Your Foundation First - You cannot scale your business unless you scale yourself. In business, leaders are expected to design quarterly, annual, and long-term plans that are driven by key performance indicators. Further, most leaders in an organization gather for at least a day to ruminate on the organization's purpose, mission, and core values alongside all these plans. We know this planning is critical in business. Why don't we do it in our lives? In his most intimate session, Andy will delve into four priority management techniques, and you will leave this 90 minute session with a personalized, actionable plan.

It was an absolutely great opportunity to: 1. Network with other likeminded people who are striving to scale their businesses. And 2. It was just a great moment to step back and learn from some great experts. It gave me more tools to my toolbox; it made me a better leader; it made me a better coach. ![](https://petracoach.com/wp-content/themes/petra-2021/images/quotes.png) Lise Gjertsen Axletree The Ascent day was superb and I took a lot from it. The pace, the variety of topics and style of presenters, made it a super terrific and educational day. I have been talking to the team about how we should work on theme, culture, meeting efficiency, innovation program and strategy (my pet peeve) leveraging what we learned and I am working with Andee on this. I suggested that we create the theme of "planting a tree" as the theme for "planting" ideas for innovation and make it a program with awards, but with planting trees as the theme. ## Register Today!
