Read and Wine: October Edition

Participate in our October Read & Wine on Thursday, October 28 at 7 P.M. EDT! Our book this month is “The Fearless Organization” by author Amy Edmondson. Edmondson argues that psychological safety, “a belief that one will not be punished or humiliated for speaking up with ideas, questions, concerns, or mistakes,” is the key to success for the team. When people feel safe to speak up, it will result in better collaboration, teamwork, innovation, and success. So, if you want to create a high-performance team, start investing in psychological safety!

For this month’s wine selection, bring any Zinfindel wine! Dark Chocolate pairs well with Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot. Bitter to semi-sweet chocolates that are 50 to 100% cacao have intense, bitter flavors, and earthy to fruity undertones. Match the intensity without adding more dryness by pairing these chocolates with full-bodied, yet fruit-forward wines.

Monthly Read & Wine Club is exclusive to NAAAP members. You do not have to read the book to join our conversation!
