CONNECT-> SUPPORT-> GROW

About Teresa Thomas: It all started with a fire and an encounter with Red Cross volunteers. Just after starting college, Teresa's family home burned to the ground in the middle of the night. The family lost everything. In the wee hours of that morning, the Red Cross provided the family with survival kits. Neighbors, some they had never even met, brought clothes and other necessities. Teresa realized over time that, in fact, they had not lost "everything." What her family retained was what really mattered: the connections between people and the kindness we share with one another. It turned out to be the best lesson of her life and informs her teaching to this day.

As the director of MN Women In Networking (WIN), Teresa Thomas shares her passion for connecting people and possibilities through networking events, facilitated workshops, speaking and writing.

Teresa has been a professional "Connector" for small businesses and in higher education for over 18 years. In 2007, Teresa took on the leadership of WIN to provide welcoming, educational networking events for authentic, motivated women in business to lift each other up for success. While she loves that her profession is to network, she is shy at heart. She enjoys sharing the tools she has learned throughout her life to help others to effectively network with confidence.
