At my first NESsT event in 2017, I arrived a guest. At my second event, I arrived as an International Board Member with several colleagues and clients alongside me. They are now engaged, contributing their time and resources to NESsT which assures me that all of the effort that I channel towards the organization is not wasted. It’s multiplied.
