Feedback isn’t a performance review—it’s a growth tool. So why does it so often feel uncomfortable and more like criticism than a catalyst?
If you’re ready to turn feedback from awkward to acceleration, join us for an energizing real-world conversation on how to seek, process, and apply feedback fearlessly. Featuring Dr. Joe Hirsch and Leslie Nydick and hosted by Learnit’s Mickey Fitch-Collins.
This isn't just another workshop—it's your playbook for shifting from feedback avoidance to feedback opportunity. You'll walk away with actionable tools to confidently seek, process, and apply feedback that fuels your professional growth. Whether you’re an individual contributor, manager, or leader, this conversation will give you practical strategies to turn feedback into an advantage.

For 35 years, The Club has hosted countless programs that have brought members together, creating meaningful social and professional connections. Among them, one stands out above the rest, The Breakfast Club.
The Breakfast Club was launched by Leslie Nydick, who recognized the need for a more intimate networking opportunity. With Leslie at the helm, The Breakfast Club was born, offering members an opportunity to participate in thoughtful discussions and forge valuable connections.
Now, 20 years later, we are excited to introduce a new iteration of The Breakfast Club. These reception-style gatherings will provide an interactive evening of networking, learning, and conversation. Each event will feature an industry leader or innovator, guiding discussions and offering actionable insights that participants can put to use. To maintain the welcoming and intimate atmosphere that has defined The Breakfast Club, attendance will be limited to 30 guests. We look forward to continuing this legacy and bringing our members together in new and meaningful ways.
