So What? Now What?
A Call to Action
National President, Kristin Arnold to present
Oct. 5, 2010, 9:00 - 12:00 noon
Maggiano's Oak Brook
Breakfast buffet included
You have just made a sizeable investment of time, energy and money to come to this meeting/convention. You want to go home armed with tools to implement positive change. Stick around for something a little "different" than a typical closing speaker. Kristin Arnold's "Endnote", a closing keynote speech will address the question:
So now what are you going to do with ideas and information you have learned?
With an engaging, entertaining and inspiring style, Kristin helps participants to recognize their key learnings and create a plan to successfully implement their ideas.
Not just entertainment … You'll leave with an action plan as well.
Each participant will receive a customized, carbonless action planning sheet. The participant keeps the top copy and Kristin compiles the information so you have a great data about what "sticks" and how you can help their journey.
