A Community Conversation with Doug Griffiths

Description

You're invited to this year's Community Conversation with Doug Griffiths, best selling author and Chief Community Builder of 13 Ways Inc. The evening will begin with small bites and opportunities for connection, followed by a featured talk and facilitated community conversation. The evening will highlight practical opportunities for change and lessons that apply to communities of all sizes, as well as to organizations and businesses. About the Conversation: At the Community Foundation of South Puget Sound, we are committed to fostering collaboration, engagement, and inclusion—and we envision a future where everyone across the South Sound can thrive in sustainable, equitable, and resilient communities. This year's Community Conversation invites us to look inward—and forward. Doug Griffiths, author of 13 Ways to Kill Your Community, challenges us to examine the assumptions and habits that can quietly stall growth and opportunity in our communities and region. Rather than relying on government or funding as quick fixes, Doug asks us to consider how our own attitudes and choices shape the future of our community—and what's possible when we take responsibility for creating change locally.
