Early in my career, I had an exciting opportunity to travel and live in Japan, which I consider an impactful time in my professional journey. Through interacting in high-level discussions as a speaker at the SVJP Annual Retreat, I am impressed by the outstanding community of top CEOs that SVJP has developed. SVJP has continued to help facilitate meaningful interactions and in-depth conversations with peer executives.
