Perfectionism sometimes looks like dedication, endless revisions, overthinking, and spending time polishing things that don’t need to be perfect. And maybe that perfectionism is holding you back; That’s what Dr. Greg Chasson will cover at our upcoming GBTA | Chicago Q3 Workshop: Performance, Presence, & Leadership. The first 100 attendees will receive a FREE copy of Greg’s book, Flawed: Why Perfectionism Is a Challenge for Management. Come ready to challenge the way you work, rethink perfectionism, and focus your energy where it actually matters. #GBTA #GBTAChicago #Chicago #BusinessTravel

GBTA | Chicago reposted this
Throughout my career, I've learned that leadership is rarely about having all the answers. It's about creating clarity in ambiguity, building trust across different perspectives, and helping people accomplish more together than they could on their own. I'm excited to join the GBTA Chicago chapter on September 10 for a conversation about career growth, leadership, influence, and what it takes to stand out in a competitive environment. Looking forward to learning from my fellow panelists and hearing the experiences of others in the room. #GBTA #Leadership #CareerDevelopment #BusinessTravel #Aviation

Perfectionism can look like a strength. High standards. Attention to detail. Wanting to get it right. But when does “good enough” become harder to recognize, and when do those high standards start getting in the way of productivity, relationships, and results? Join GBTA | Chicago at our Q3 meeting for a 90-minute workshop with Dr. Greg Chasson, author of Flawed: Why Perfectionism Is a Challenge for Management, as he takes a closer look at perfectionism in the workplace and how we can manage it more effectively. Come ready to participate, think differently, and maybe even recognize a few perfectionist habits of your own. Registration is now live, and you won't want to miss this one! #BusinessTravel #Chicago #Perfectionism #GBTA

Dipped, baptized, or easy on the au jus, there is no wrong way to order a real Chicago Italian Beef. Thin-sliced beef cooked in spiced au jus, stuffed into French bread, and crowned with crunchy, oil-packed giardiniera. We are continuing 'The Chicago File' with one of the city's greatest culinary delights. Pack a jar of giardiniera in your checked luggage on the way home! #GBTA #GBTAConvention #GBTA2026 #Chicago

Seven ingredients. Zero ketchup. It is the ultimate Chicago food icon. From the snap of the all-beef frank to the sprinkle of celery salt on top, there is an exact science to building an authentic Chicago dog. Don't go home without asking to "Drag it through the Garden!" #GBTA #GBTAConvention #GBTA2026 #Chicago
