Laurie Carey (Executive Career Coach & CEO, We Connect the Dots)


In this video, Laurie talks about how Connect the Dots organization is part of a twenty year vision that came to fruition after her work on her MBA at Harvard University. Working on her degree, she had the opportunity to get to know people from various fields and from around the world, and she saw the need for the development of STEAM skills in students, to help close the skills gap in technology and to prepare students for meaningful work.
