pdxMindShare was founded in 1999 by Kent Lewis, and has been bringing professionals in Portland, OR together for career education, networking, and connecting employers and employees ever since.
The core focus of MindShare in the early years was to provide a quality networking experience for those interested in growing their personal and professional careers through meaningful connections. Since 2001 free networking events occurred at local establishments around our city. Founder Kent Lewis believes there is an inverse relationship between the size of a networking event and the perceived quality. For that reason, MindShare has targeted the networking events to be 30 to 50 attendees. The formula has proven true, which you can read about in our testimonials, as the larger crowds of 80 to 100 didn’t allow for the closer and more meaningful connections.
pdxMindShare, now powered by HR Annie Consulting, offers both monthly webinars and quarterly in-person learning and networking events. By assessing the value of the physical learning and networking events and virtual webinars, we’ve determined that taking both an in-person and digital approach will better meet everyone’s abilities to make connections.
We encourage you to engage in the pdxMindShare community by attending our events, signing up for our newsletter, joining conversations on the LinkedIn group (the largest in Portland with over 12K members), learning about job openings on our website’s job board, following us on YouTube, and liking us on Facebook. As always please let us know how we can make this a better community for you.
