THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED!
 

Looking for an easy way to learn something new and connect with others? Tapped Minds is a monthly Boise State Alumni Association event that brings interesting ideas out of the classroom and into a relaxed, social setting. 

Join us on the first Monday of each month from 6–7 p.m. at Lost Grove Brewing for an engaging talk from someone in the Boise State community.

This month’s topic: The Gap Between Wanting It and Getting It

Half the year is gone. If you're being honest with yourself... are you where you thought you'd be?

Most people aren't. Not because they don't want it badly enough, but because wanting it was where the plan ended. Research shows the difference between people who reach their goals and people who don't usually has little to do with motivation. Megan Renaldo, a Boise State alumni and founder of Renaldo & Co. Performance Consulting, is pulling back the curtain on the behavioral science behind why goals stall, and what high performers actually do differently to keep moving. The good news: there's still half a year left. Come ready to think differently about how you finish it.

As a leadership and performance coach, Megan works with leaders and business owners to build higher performing teams and organizations. A former Division I soccer player at Boise State, she holds both a bachelor's in marketing and a master's in organizational performance and workplace learning from Boise State. She also currently serves as President of Varsity B, Boise State’s letter winners club.

The presentation lasts about 30 minutes, followed by time for questions and casual conversation. Expect something more like a TED Talk: approachable, engaging and designed to spark curiosity.

Tapped Minds is open to alumni, students, faculty, staff and community members, and there is no cost to attend. An RSVP is encouraged to help with planning, but walk-ins are always welcome.

As a bonus, $1 from every beer sold between 5:30 and 7:30 p.m. will be donated to the Boise State Alumni Association to support alumni programs and community-building efforts.

Tapped Minds is presented by the Boise State Alumni Association and proudly supported by Lost Grove Brewing.
