We are proud to recognize an inspiring initiative by AmCham Estonia Board Member Carl Pucci. 💙

Yesterday marked a special day for Rapla vald with the unveiling of a new city sign at the Tallinn-side entrance, welcoming everyone arriving in the town.

The project was brought to life through Carl’s idea, initiative, and funding, together with a design created by local designer Indrek Tuuga.

A wonderful example of leadership, community spirit, and commitment to making Rapla even more welcoming.

What happens when one of the world’s leading communication experts comes to Tallinn? A room full of leaders, entrepreneurs, and professionals leaves with a completely new perspective on how to connect, influence, and lead.

On 16 June at Swissôtel Tallinn, internationally renowned communication expert John Bates delivered an inspiring masterclass on leadership communication, presence, and authentic influence, supported by the BAFF - Baltic-American Freedom Foundation.

💡 Key insights from the session:

🎯 People are always “reading” you — your energy, confidence, and behavior communicate before your words do.
🎯 “Everything you say gets heard.” Every interaction is an opportunity to build trust and credibility.
🎯 “Don’t be nervous – be at their service.” Shift the focus from yourself to your audience and how you can help and elevate them.
🎯 The F.O.R.D. framework (Family, Occupation, Recreation, Dreams) makes meaningful networking simple and authentic.
🎯 Emotional credibility matters — authenticity, vulnerability, and storytelling often outweigh perfection.
🎯 Great communication is built through preparation and intentional practice.

A special congratulations to Kadi Urbas, recipient of the Pamela Luise Dreamlifter Award 2026, presented in recognition of her outstanding contribution and inspiring impact.

A big thank you to John Bates, BAFF - Baltic-American Freedom Foundation, and everyone who joined us for an energizing afternoon of practical tools, fresh insights, and meaningful connections.

🌟 2026 recipient: Kadi Urbas

The CIEE Council on International Educational Exchange Global Internship Conference brings together leaders from higher education, industry, and government to advance global work-integrated learning. The event serves as a platform where knowledge is shared, ideas are sparked, and meaningful connections are made to support student success, public diplomacy, and economic growth.

Together, they explored practical approaches to creating impactful internship experiences that benefit students, employers, and communities alike.
As organizations continue to navigate an increasingly global and interconnected workforce, partnerships between academia, employers, and international education providers remain essential in preparing the next generation of talent.
