(6 - 10pm)
Speaker: Tesha Peel, STL Organizing Solutions
Organization is crucial for both business and personal success. In business, it ensures efficient operations, timely delivery of products or services, and better decision-making. It fosters a positive work environment, enhances productivity, and helps in achieving goals. In personal life, organization minimizes stress, improves time management, and enhances overall well-being. It allows for better prioritization, goal setting, and work-life balance. In both spheres, organization fosters discipline, accountability, and adaptability, which are vital for success. It ensures resources are utilized effectively, and facilitates growth and development, ultimately leading to success in both professional and personal realms.
This luncheon is the monthly gathering of the Fenton Chamber Women's Group which serves as a platform for networking and leads-sharing, education and relationship building through various events and activities.
Ribbon Cuttings are an important and exciting part of the Fenton Chamber's role of supporting businesses in the community. We advocate for members of the Fenton Chamber by encouraging patronizing Chamber member businesses and doing business locally in order to keep the region thriving!

Let's Get Together... In Your Neighborhood! Meeting members & supporting businesses... one neighborhood at a time!
The Fenton Chamber is committed to meeting members where they are. Through the "In Your Neighborhood" program, we make it EASIER for our members to connect with Fenton Chamber staff and fellow members, as well as meeting fellow business owners near them that they may not meet at other events. With each of these IYN events, we select/target a "neighborhood" location by choosing a meeting place for breakfast/lunch/after hours. All are welcome to each IYN event, but we do make an effort to personally invite members (event non-members) within close distance of that location to attend.
No event fee; attendees pay their own way
