Bill Carr; an actor, writer, speaker, and social activist does a fantastic session on “Talking in Circles”. It is about communication at a deeper level than many of us are used to.

Pause for thought. It's a common saying. We talk about an idea or a happening that gives us 'pause for thought.' But how often do we really pause?

Let's face it. It is a real investment to attend an industry conference. On top of the registration fees, travel, hotel and meal costs, it's also time away from the office and the disruption to your schedule. That said, if you take the time to prepare in advance, you can reap some pretty incredible rewards from your time spent in sessions.
