Last week, we warmly welcomed the new year with our first IPWS event of 2024, a delightful breakfast session with the remarkable Connie Zhao, a growth engineer at Google.
Hailing from the beautiful porcelain city of Jingdezhen and a proud alumnus of a university in Xiamen, Connie emphasized the power of curiosity and the art of saying ‘yes’ to unforeseen opportunities.
Connie’s genuine encouragement about seizing new opportunities, irrespective of our comfort levels, truly inspired us. Sharing anecdotes from her own journey, she illustrated how these experiences molded her career and personal development. Connie urged us all to tap into our innate sense of curiosity.
Following our conversation, we had a warm and engaging networking session. This provided an excellent platform for sharing stories, connecting with each other, and welcoming some fresh faces into our IPWS family.
Our breakfast with Connie Zhao was a wonderful way to usher in 2024 – a morning of shared experiences, inspiring personal stories, and the comfort of our growing community.
We are looking forward to what the rest of the year brings, inspired by Connie’s words to stay curious, step outside our comfort zones, and embrace the power of saying ‘yes’.
Heartfelt thanks to all who attended and contributed to the warm atmosphere of this event.
Stay connected and let’s keep growing together!
