Make plans now to attend The Partnership for Development Summit and Expo (PDSE). This event will include round table discussions, networking opportunities, and an Expo Hall. We are especially pleased to welcome, as our keynote speaker, international best-selling author, Mark Thompson. Mark will share insights from his book Success Built to Last: Creating a Life That Matters.
About the Keynote
The international bestseller, Success Built to Last: Creating a Life That Matters, shatters the myths of success and is based on the lives of the world’s most successful people -- from community leaders and Nobel laureates to Presidents, billionaires and CEOs.
As Mark started this book, he was told by Peter Drucker, the father of management science, “It’s pointless to talk about leadership and igniting the potential of your workforce without defining what success means in the first place. If you can learn the Success Mindsets of your boss, your team, and your loved ones, you will double the effectiveness of your relationships with them.”
Mark can help you learn how to do this in just one hour. During this program, you’ll learn five essential secrets that will help you create lasting relationships and personal and professional success.
About the Speaker
Mark Thompson has two decades of experience as a senior executive, board member, management coach, producer, and investor. Mark is an expert at helping organizations embrace rapid change, ignite growth, and engage the influential people who are driving the brand's future.
