On Friday, January 13, the Parrish Art Museum in Water Mill hosted BizShine – a new program where local business leaders tell their stories in pithy five-minute presentations.
At this creative format, inspired by the Museum’s popular PechaKucha Night Hamptons, five professionals who live and work on the East End of Long Island shared insights into their unique journey, broaching topics including doing business in a seasonal community, creating a brand identity, navigating key business decisions, failing forward, and stretching oneself.
The speakers included fine jewelry designer Dale Novick, Oza Sabbeth Architects partner Peter Sabbeth, Shou Sugi Ban House founder and CEO Amy Cherry-Abitbol, Marc A. Chiffert of Chiffert Architectural Engineering and Construction Services, and The Roundtree, Amagansett owner Sylvia Wong.
Part storytelling and part workshop, BizShine included Q&A session with the presenters and informal table conversations for guests to meet one another, discuss ideas, and brainstorm on new strategies.
