The Conway Center for Family Business provides highly relevant, topical and original programming that helps members learn, stay informed and share experiences with their peers. These family-focused educational programs are unique to the Center and cannot be found anywhere else in Central Ohio.
In addition, we offer enjoyable social interactions that allow members to build strong relationships. We believe that some of the most productive experiences are created in less formal, group settings where relationships can be built, ideas shared and new opportunities hatched.
Just some of these activities include our annual Family Business Awards & Expo, Monthly Educational Programs, Networking and Social Events and Peer Groups. Please see our Events Calendar for topics that can provide solutions to your family business challenge.

Employee Experience (EX) and Why It Matters
Let's be honest, Employee Experience is a buzzword. Nevertheless, the concept holds significant value for organizations who are willing to do the tough work required to make it part of their culture. Yet, many times we lack the necessary definition and data around the concept to make it impactful for organizations.
In this session, we will discuss the process of Employee Engagement and how it should be approached to achieve the value of empowering employees to do great work.
The purpose of this peer group is to share our diverse perspectives on what is important for leaders and hear what others are doing in order to build relationships, gain clarity on key leadership challenges or opportunities and support each other. Facilitator Jonathon McKay with PATH leads these sessions in a very collaborative group that encourages peer-to-peer sharing.

HR Live Virtual Meeting - From Apathy to Zoom Fatigue – We All Just Need a (Socially-Distanced) Hug
If nothing else, 2020 was a year where nobody could be too comfortable! Following months and months of navigating remote working, paid sick leave, viruses, vaccinations, and social unrest, let’s take an hour or so to check in with one another and hear about the best practices we’ve all developed from what we learned, and develop our 2021 checklists of what we need to do and what we need to watch. With a change in our federal leadership, there will definitely be (even more) changes coming! Come prepared with best practices, burning questions, and ready to receive your virtual hug to keep you going through Q1 2021!
Sharon DeLay, President of GO-HR will facilitate this session - join us for this live meeting* to find practical advice around tackling the challenges you are facing.
*Note: Because we want this to be interactive, this session will be a Zoom Meeting (same format as our peer groups) with audio/video enabled for all who join. Note that if you do not have video capability, you are still welcome to participate.

The Towanda Effect: Unapologetic Boldness for Career and Life Success - A Conversation with Tonya Tiggett
We welcome Tonya Tiggett, Founder of Tiggett & Co. as our guest speaker.
What propels you to act with uncharacteristic boldness, even just once? If you ever saw the movie Fried Green Tomatoes you can understand that shouting a simple mantra like “TOWANDA!” can have an amazingly emboldening effect when being unapologetically bold!
Do you know that the characteristic of being bold is not solely a human behavior?
Join us for a lively conversation to discover how marine biologists define boldness for success and survival in fish species and what we can learn from their research to apply to our own lives and organizational cultures to not only be bolder, but to be unapologetically bold!

How to Understand What Your Employees Need
''Great leaders are great listeners.'' That's a quote from somewhere, and it still holds the same weight as when it was first uttered. A key aspect of leadership is about our ability to solve problems and help others solve problems. As leaders, how do we know what the problem is? What are the things that hamper both our ability and others to achieve goals and create positive outcomes? How can we better understand the people around us to get things done?
This session will address the questions above and others by discussing best practices of employee feedback and what to do with it.
The purpose of this peer group is to share our diverse perspectives on what is important for leaders and hear what others are doing in order to build relationships, gain clarity on key leadership challenges or opportunities and support each other. Facilitator Jonathon McKay with PATH leads these sessions in a very collaborative group that encourages peer-to-peer sharing.
