  Introducing… ATD NYC Co-work and Connect! A program designed to help TD professionals get together, crush some work, and meet.

  
  

  Why Co-work and Connect?

  In today's world of work, TD professionals often face two key challenges:

  • Lack of time and energy for deep, focused work.

  • Limited opportunities to connect with professionals outside their teams and organizations.

  This program is designed to tackle both, providing an ongoing structured setting for attendees to get things done together before the work week is out—then celebrate with a little socialization.

  When is it?

  Every other Friday in June from 1:00 to 2:30 pm EST (and future months), beginning June 13th

  Who will you meet?

  Talent development professionals from NYC and beyond, looking to work together, support each other's work, and connect with others.

  How does it work?
  1. Welcome & Intentions (15 min)
  

  • You join the meeting, introduce yourself to everyone in chat, and are quickly placed into a breakout group with 2-4 others.
  • You briefly introduce yourself to your group mates (e.g., name, role, org, interests) and set your intention for the co-working session (e.g., finish a project proposal, write a LinkedIn post, research a topic).

  2. Co-working Sprint (45 min)
  

  • You work on what you intended to do, surrounded by other focused colleagues.
  • You can choose to leave your cameras on for accountability or turn them off for focus time.

  3. Check-In & Reflection (15 min)
  

  • You reconvene with your groupmates to discuss how things went (e.g., progress made, key learnings or takeaways, challenges encountered, next steps).
  • People may offer feedback or advice based on their knowledge and experiences if you request.

  4. Networking & Wrap-Up (15 min)
  

  • You end by getting to know one another a bit more and bonding over shared interests.
  • You might also arrange a time schedule for follow-up 1:1s to connect or discuss your work in more detail.
  • You and your group return to the main room to mingle for a few more minutes with others and then depart.

  About Our Presenters

  Mary Rapaport | Chief Xceleration Officer at Xcelerate

  

  Mary Rapaport is on a mission to democratize strategic thinking. She believes it's not just for the elite few, but for everyone in an organization. When everyone channels a strategic mindset, the business culture thrives, teams become more creative, and employees lean in and engage more. Cultivating this mindset helps leaders create a better (and more fun) place to work, fostering a stronger culture of creativity and innovation.

  As a strategic thinking architect, Mary empowers leaders and teams across all functions and levels to think, act, and lead more strategically. As the founder of Xcelerate, she builds learning strategy, designing and delivering immersive learning experiences that ignite "aha moments" and drive tangible business results.

  Mary's signature program, the Strategic Playground Workshop, is a unique blend of immersion, play, and practical application. Participants engage in reflection, peer learning, and scenario learning to awaken and channel their strategic mindset, helping them solve complex challenges and have a greater impact.

  As a trusted strategic thinking coach, Mary partners with individuals and teams at leading brands to develop customized learning and development strategies. She works closely with clients to identify blind spots, refine critical thinking skills, and translate strategic insights into actionable plans for tangible ROI.

  Mary's passion extends beyond individual development. She champions inclusive growth through the Minority Business Growth Alliance, a non-profit providing invaluable coaching and support to BIPOC entrepreneurs. She holds an MBA, a BA in International Business and French, and is a certified leadership and sales trainer. Mary has extensive experience in marketing, transformation, and strategic initiatives. She also serves as the current president of the Twin Cities chapter of the Association of Talent Development.
