MAX Leadership Network Convenes at Microsoft Atlantic Yards for Conversation on Braided Funding

January 2, 2023

On Monday, December 12th, the MAX Leadership Network convened for the final meeting of the year at Microsoft Atlantic Yards. Leadership Network members heard from MAX Vice Chair Jenny Taylor about effective practices undertaken by Goodwill of North Georgia and partners to braid funding from multiple governmental sources that enable the partners to take a more holistic approach in serving the job seeker.

At this last convening of 2022, Leadership Network members also took time to reflect on the year behind and to share priorities for the year ahead.

Following the meeting, MAX member Navtej Singh Saini, Operations Manager with Microsoft, provided Leadership Network members with a personal tour of Microsoft’s Atlantic Yards campus. When you think of Microsoft Atlantic Yards, in addition to work and meeting spaces, think maker space, 3-D printing, in-house restaurants and cafes, a rec center, a rooftop herbal garden, a preserve for bees, an in-house grocery market, a music studio, and more.
