The countdown is on! This July, the Plus Wonder team is touching down in Long Beach, California, for the JAG Edge conference.
As educators and workforce development professionals gather to shape the future of career readiness, we are thrilled to bring a new dimension to the conversation—shifting the focus from transactional skills to transformative, relational impact. Youth today don’t just want a job; they want to matter. We are here to give you the turnkey tools to help them find that purpose.
If you are attending JAG Edge, here are ways we’d love to connect and collaborate with you:
1. Get Certified: Attend Our Workshop
Join our fast-paced morning workshop: The Certified Connection Architect: A Network & Framework for Forging Community Impact. You won’t just listen to theory—you will actively map out an implementation plan to help your students discover their higher purpose. Best of all, you will complete the requirements to walk out of the room fully “badged” in our first degree: Something Bigger.
2. Visit our Expo Booth
Take a minute to reset at our “Write-a-Postcard” station and send your partner in purpose a little message. Grab a copy of Jean Oelwang’s book Partnering (and maybe our new, surprise resource debuting at the conference!). Scan our QR code to instantly unlock a free digital toolkit. Who knows… perhaps we may develop a beautiful idea together on how to enhance the connection work already happening in your school or institution! Schedule a time to chat with Lindsay here!
3. Learn from the Best: Celebrating 2025’s Impact Awardees
One of the highlights will be celebrating and connecting with three of our 2025 Impact Award recipients who are hosting sessions at Edge this year. Seeing their insights highlighted on the national stage is a testament to the power of relational frameworks in action.
