Through its continued collaboration with Zip Travel, Trinity University of Asia participated in Christine Trippi’s “Turning No into Yes” seminar held on September 30, 2025 at Collab, Sheraton Manila.

The session brought together professionals and educators for an engaging discussion on transforming rejection into opportunity. Known for her energetic and authentic style, Christine Trippi shared strategies that blend empathy, confidence, and communication that offered participants practical tools for both professional and personal growth.

The seminar introduced Trippi’s “NO Framework,” a structured approach to understanding the psychology behind rejection and responding with clarity and optimism. These insights are especially valuable for those in leadership, customer service, and client relations, where human connection and adaptability are key.

For TUA, the invitation from industry partner Zip Travel reflects the value of building strong external linkages that enhance real-world learning. Such partnerships ensure that TUA’s students, faculty, and staff remain engaged with current industry perspectives that reinforce both competence and character.
