Speaker Info
“I feel like I'm still soaking it all in. I got to go back to the office and apply it but I really like the breadth of the offerings. The keynote speaker, John (Moore) was great… He was very engaging, also very relevant and it wasn't just entertaining. And I won one of those Starbucks gift cards, so that helps.”
