Personal development is one of the best investments you can make, and it always benefits you. Whether you want to IGNITE your speaking abilities to further your career, reach your volunteering goals, or improve your skills, this year’s District 11 Spring Personal Development Conference will light the fire within you that you need to succeed.
This year’s conference features Craig Valentine LIVE AND IN PERSON.
Craig is an award-winning motivational speaker, speech coach, and best-selling author. He has helped thousands of individuals and hundreds of organizations reap the profitable rewards that comes with presenting with impact and persuading with ease.
Our Friday night keynote speaker is Dr. Magnus Jansson. He will educate us on the skill of Improv. I assure you this hilarity should not be missed. Magnus will keep you on your toes and on the edge of your seat.
