For instance, quarterly face-to-face meetings with several Fortune 100 corporate clients of mine were game changers not only for adding value to all partnership stakeholders, but also for breaking down internal silos clients sometimes found within their own organizations.

Another great opportunity for exploring shared values is at annual summits. Beyond strategic programming, less structured social opportunities are equally as important. I’ve found that this time can be enhanced with artists and other creatives—like the Dear World storytellers who photographed me at IMEX!

The key is to gather. That’s where you see real growth in collaboration, partnership results and the development of new initiatives.
