Ukrainian American Cultural Center of New Jersey, 60, Hanover, NJ, 07981, United States.

We’re excited to announce our 12th Positivity Summit—the first of 2025! This January, we’ll gather once again at the Ukrainian American Cultural Center in New Jersey to explore a topic we all face: Change and Transition.

Most change in life is brought to us by life itself. Some changes are expected, and some take us by surprise. The challenge is figuring out how to navigate these shifts.

At the Positivity Summit, we create an environment where you can:

  • Reflect on the changes in your life, both big and small.
  • Learn tools to navigate expected and unexpected changes.
  • Connect with people from all walks of life to share ideas, stories, and support.

Cornell Thomas

Two decades ago, I was offered my first professional leadership position. I was offered the position of head men’s basketball coach at my alma mater Sussex County Community College. At that time, I had never coached a team before in my life, I had no idea what it truly meant to lead people, and I didn’t have a clue about how impactful culture was regarding the success or failure of a team. In those 6 years at SCCC, I experienced the lowest of lows and the highest of highs. I learned that leadership and culture weren’t a destination but an ever-evolving journey. My professional coaching journey has expanded over 20 years, and I am still searching for how to be a more effective leader daily
