10:00 am - 12:30 pm - Keynote speaker:  David Rich "How to Click with Everyone Every Time"  Have you wondered why you "click" with some people yet "clash" with others?  Why we seem to connect so effortlessly with one person and labor in vain to build rapport with another?  The answer is not just coincidence.  With the right skills and attitude, we have the power to connect with just about anyone, any time.  Success, no matter what industry we're in, is directly related to the quality of our relationships.  People do business with people they believe, like and trust.  Yet building true connections is harder then ever.  While technology has made it easier to communicate, it has made it harder to connect.  In this highly inspirational and informative session, based on the best-selling book of the same title, David will equip us with the how's and the why's to creating and sustaining quality relationships. 

David is a nationally known professional speaker of 31 years and best-selling author of 5 books including How to Stay Motivated on a Daily Basis, How to Click with Everyone Every Time, and Contagious Selling!  He has made over 2500 presentations to over 2 million people in 49 states and 4 countries.

2:45 - 4:00 pm Lisa Danforth "Establishing Healthy Boundaries in Business and Life" Healthy boundaries are critical in business AND in life.  When we lack them, we often feel resentment, frustration, anger...and it drains our energy and vitality. Lacking boundaries impacts the way we run our business, and it slows the success we're working so hard to achieve.  It can make us scattered and erode a healthy relationship, be it with family, friends, co-workers, employees, or even (perhaps especially) with ourselves and our business. Boundaries are essential for creating a healthy lifestyle, inside and out.

Over the last 26 years Lisa has successfully launched 3 businesses and knows what it takes to get out of your own way and play a bigger game in life and in business.  Lisa is a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach (CPCC) with training and Certification from the Coach Training Institute (CTI).
