Conference Highlights
We have another incredible speaker line-up that will undoubtedly overload you with takeaways for your life and office. Our industry address will be conducted on October 15 by Mr. Marco Poggio, TOUAX Global Container Solutions who will discuss the State of the Industry and provide insight on what occurred within the industry for 2012 and what to expect in 2013. Preceding Mr. Poggio’s address will be two outstanding speakers. First will be Creative Communications Strategist and Hall of Fame Speaker Victoria Labalme who is known for her electrifying Keynote Performances and her ability to transform people’s communications: their listening, speaking and presentation skills. Victoria shows her clients how to apply key principles from the performing arts to revitalize their communications for lasting results. In addition, we will continue our economic series which has been very highly rated and receive an analytic update of the current economic situation and what we can expect to see in the near future.
If you attended the Spring Seminar, than you know, Scott Ginsberg can deliver the goods. He was one of the highest rated speakers we have ever had and he has agreed to return with us to Kansas City and present two workshops geared toward solid takeaways for you and your company. With numerous other educational sessions and networking opportunities available this will be more than just another exciting and informative show.
