Lori Syverson President
Edina Innovation Lab

I am passionate about helping people find their purpose—what keeps them motivated, focused and resilient. Now more than ever, a sense of purpose is essential to sustained success. I have worked closely with leading motivational experts and organizations to developing purpose-focused programming around the country, and am excited to share that expertise with participants at the Edina Innovation Lab.
