In this episode of GatherGeeks, we\'re bringing you another live presentation from BizBash\'s hybrid conference in Las Vegas. BizBash founder and chairman David Adler introduces Christina Matteucci, executive director of\\xa0David Beahm Experiences, who discusses how number-twos will lead the post-COVID bounce back. Like celebrity event designer David Beahm, successful entrepreneurs have become veritable superheroes in American culture. However, data suggests that society\\u2019s obsession with entrepreneurship as the vehicle for professional recognition could spell disaster for the future of the U.S. workforce in a post-COVID landscape\\u2014if the struggle for acknowledgment continues to wipe out the value of collaboration.

From unifying the political divide to healing race relations to solving our global climate crisis, solutions for our world\\u2019s biggest problems won\\u2019t come from one hero\\u2014they\\u2019ll be the product of many minds working together. The prototype for that alliance begins in the workplace; it begins with the \\u201cnumber twos.\\u201d In this educational discussion, Matteucci, aka "TeucciMama," will show us why we should be giving a second thought to our second in command.

Running time: 50:50. Sponsored by\\xa0Evolution Event Solutions.
