Program Description:

More Time. More Money. More Recognition.

Are You Where You Want to Be Professionally? This Is Your Chance to Get There Now.

If you’ve ever stopped and wondered to yourself “how did I get here?” you aren’t alone. Every once in a while things bog down ... back up ... push us around. You wonder if anyone notices the work you do. You wonder how much more work you can cram into an eight-, nine-, or 10- hour day.

It’s up to you to take charge of your life. No one will change it for you. But one thing this Conference does is show you HOW to make positive, lasting, and effective changes to get the things you want out of your life. Just one day of empowerment is all it takes. The only question is ... are you ready?

Break free from problems that drag you down (like difficult people and time-wasters).

It’s amazing how fast a mean-spirited gossiper can ruin your day. It’s shocking how quickly a "do you have a second?" can derail your afternoon to-do list. But that’s only half of it. Maybe you know you’re due for a raise but you just can’t figure out what to say. This Conference is full of must-know solutions women need to be and stay successful at work. You’ll get key negotiation skills ... tips for handling difficult people ... ideas for using time more effectively ... and that’s just the beginning!

Don’t miss two new sessions: Health & Wellness and Financial Tips for Women.

Times are changing, and so are the things you want at professional development conferences. In short, you asked and we answered. We’re thrilled to introduce two new cutting-edge sessions at this Conference. Health & Wellness shows you how to eat healthily on the go and how to keep your mind as sharp as a tack. Financial Tips covers one of the hottest issues we face today – budgeting and saving. You’ll get quick tips guaranteed to help you save for retirement ... a vacation ... or even just an emergency fund.

This is your chance to change your life. Don’t let it pass you by. Enroll today.

If you only do one thing this year, attend this Conference. The skills you’ll learn in just one day will impact your life forever. You’ll be more confident ... more energetic ... and more positive. Not only will you see an immediate difference, but your coworkers ... managers ... and family will too.

Morning Workshop 9:00 - 11:45 a.m.
Managing Multiple Projects, Priorities & Deadlines
If you’re doing more than ever (with less time to do it in), some days can feel like you’re barely staying afloat. But the ability to manage multiple projects and stay on deadline is the difference between being successful and just getting by. Not to mention the stress and frustration that comes from feeling overwhelmed. This workshop shows you how to take charge of your day – once and for all.

You’ll learn how to …

Double your productivity with these powerful tools

End procrastination once and for all

Evaluate your true priorities and handle multiple projects with greater success

Tame the paper blizzard and the avalanche of e-mails that threatens to bury you

Reduce the interruptions, glitches, and other roadblocks that get in your way

Afternoon Workshop 1:15 – 4:00 p.m.
Communicating With Power, Influence, and Finesse
Your communication style is your inescapable calling card. It immediately announces who you are ... how you feel ... and what you can expect – from yourself and others. But communicating with power and influence is not a skill that comes naturally to most of us. In this exclusive workshop, we’ll show you how to achieve great personal and professional rewards by mastering essential communication skills.

You’ll learn how to …

Stop sabotaging yourself with credibility-robbing speech habits you don’t even know you have

Project the professional image you want through more effective communication skills

Be taken seriously thanks to your newfound communication finesse

Effectively communicate your ideas with confidence
