📍Sarasota, FL - International Generalist Day Meetup
International Generalist Day 2025 🌍
Imagine you could meet new friends who understood your squiggly background? Well, now you can!
Join Jing Herman and Lori Roth in Sarasota for International Generalist Day - a global celebration happening simultaneously across cities worldwide on September 3rd, 2025.
This year we have events across 30+ countries and 80+ locations!
Jing and Lori are hosting coffee, pastries, and career story sharing at the charming Mademoiselle Paris. It's the perfect setting to connect with fellow generalists who've made the move from NYC/Northeast to Florida, sharing stories over delicious French-inspired treats and celebrating the journey from big city hustle to Florida life.
What is a generalist? Professionals who apply their skills across multiple domains, connect disparate ideas, or serve as "translators" between different teams and disciplines. If you've ever felt your career doesn't fit in a single box, this celebration is for you.
What to expect:
Connect with fellow generalists in your city
Celebrate the power of diverse skillsets and squiggly careers
Be part of a global movement happening the same day worldwide
Casual socializing over delicious coffee and pastries
Your host Jing is a former Wall Street investment banker turned NYC tech CEO who's now a small business owner and artist in Florida - truly embodying the generalist journey of reinvention! Her favorite part about being a generalist? "Not just knowing that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts, but working with multiple stakeholders to make it happen!"
As Jing shares: "I'm excited about connecting with generalists who have moved from NYC/Northeast to FL!"
