The 2016 Closing Keynote Speaker is living proof that you can totally transform your life and your business if you put others first and find a mentor. Speaking about second chances and overcoming incredible strife, Jim Morris’ story is a testimony that goals can be achieved, even if the odds aren’t in your favor. In fact, Jim’s meteoric rise from 35-year-old high school teacher with Parkinson’s to flame-throwing major league pitcher in three months made cinematic history with the release of “The Rookie” starring Dennis Quaid.

Greg Guthrie
Time and Task Management for Busy People
Pre-Conference Workshop
Wednesday, April 13 • 12:30 to 3:00 p.m.

Effective time and task management isn’t about controlling time. It’s about managing how you invest your time. Managing multiple priorities and tasks that compete for your time. And finally, it’s about managing yourself out of unproductive habits that rob you of valuable time. Greg’s hands-on, professional experience spans senior management positions in global Fortune 500 companies to managing large financial projects for local enterprises. As a speaker and trainer, he’s well known for his ability to motivate others and his creative approach to leadership.
