WOW MOMENTS! Book by Mark Kent Coming Soon!
"In a market economy characterized by commoditized products and global competition, how does your company gain deep and lasting loyalty from customers? I believe it is by providing meaningful customer experiences."
A tender moment of everyday life captured in an underpass — an elderly woman and a man walk closely arm in arm, their steps in quiet rhythm. The warm tones of the walls and the play of light and shadow frame their silhouettes, highlighting a simple yet powerful expression of care, companionship, and human connection.
A few times a year, Human Connections organizes GETs (Global Engagement Trips) for student groups, tourists, and other visitors eager to gain a better understanding of the local culture in Nayarit, Mexico. This particular GET group, from Northern Illinois University, participated in a week long program centered around social entrepreneurship, NGO management, and sustainable development.
