** Please note - we expect the entire firm to be in attendance. If for some reason you are unable to attend please let June or Ashley know. **

Meet Our Keynote Speaker: Diana Kander

Topic: Curiosity Unleashed: Ignite the Innovator Within - In today’s ever-changing business climate, our roles have evolved far past our job descriptions. We face a volatile external environment - we encounter pressure to stay relevant to clients - we experience challenging workforce issues - and are being asked to do a lot more with a lot less. All of this is asking you to be innovators. The big question is, are we doing it the hard way or the easy way?

Based on her book, The Curiosity Muscle, this keynote helps members of organizations who don't have innovation in their job description to embrace and identity as an innovator. Diana will share the key skills and habits that make innovation easier and a lot more fun. She'll empower attendees to harness the power of curiosity to unlock new possibilities and drive business growth. Attendees will leave this keynote identifying as innovators and seeking opportunities to use their new skills.

About Diana: Diana Kander is an innovation nerd - she spent the first decade of her career as an entrepreneur, launching 10 companies in 10 years, while selling millions of dollars of products and services. She spent the next decade coaching innovators inside large organizations; at one point she served as the innovation coach for the executive team of a $100 million dollar project.
