A summer with @capturecolumbia will leave students

A summer with @capturecolumbia will leave students connected, driven, and with a sense of local pride for #realcolumbiasc ⁠
⁠
Here's what to expect during the 2022 Capture Columbia program:⁠
⁠
June 7: Kickoff to Capture Columbia⁠
Capture Columbia will kick off with a networking power session at @savagecraftaleworks featuring a panel of community leaders. At the kickoff event, the participants will receive their passport for the program. ⁠
⁠
June 14: Behind the Scenes (BTS) with BullStreet and the Columbia Fireflies⁠
Each event is infused with insider experiences — at this event participants will enjoy a rooftop networking hour and an exclusive update on burgeoning developments within the @bullstreetsc District. The evening will conclude with a @colafireflies game. ⁠
⁠
June 28: Explore & Restore our Rivers ⁠
Participants will spend a morning with the Congaree Riverkeeper to learn how to access our rivers followed by an hour of service to clean the areas. ⁠
⁠
July 12: Morning on @mainstcolasc⁠
Starting on Boyd Plaza, participants will split into smaller groups for a walking tour of the Main Street District, meeting business owners and exploring historic sites along the way. ⁠
⁠
July 26: Discovering #RealColumbiaSC Districts (new!) ⁠
New this year, Discovering #RealColumbiaSC Districts will take participants across the greater Columbia region to meet with community leaders who manage the entertainment districts. Students will have the opportunity to share ideas on how to improve the districts and “be the broker” for vacant openings in their neighborhood. ⁠
⁠
August 9: Capture Columbia Graduation⁠
Great ideas and positive energy will fill the room at graduation as each group presents their ideas to city leaders, business owners and community power players. Students who participated in at least four events throughout the summer will be honored with a special commemoration at the graduation ceremony. ⁠
⁠
Don't let your summer employees or interns have fomo (fear of missing out) of this incredible opportunity. Registration is open at https://ourcor.org/events-service/capture-columbia/⁠

Did you know that part of @crashcoursecola's current itinerary includes a DiSC assessment? This allows for employees to learn their strengths and weaknesses personally and professionally and helps employers gain insight into how to manage each type of personality. ⁠
⁠
DiSC is an acronym that stands for the four main personality profiles described in the DiSC model: (D)ominance, (i)nfluence, (S)teadiness and (C)onscientiousness.⁠
⁠
People with D personalities tend to be confident and place an emphasis on accomplishing bottom-line results.⁠
⁠
People with i personalities tend to be more open and place an emphasis on relationships and influencing or persuading others.⁠
⁠
People with S personalities tend to be dependable and place the emphasis on cooperation and sincerity.⁠
⁠
People with C personalities tend to place the emphasis on quality, accuracy, expertise, and competency.⁠
⁠
Have you taken the assessment? -- To get your employees involved in Crash Course Cola, email info@ourcor.org
