What could be better ... a bunch of high-powered, like-minded folks
gathering in the sun at the charming Four Seasons Biltmore in Santa Barbara ...
sharing ideas, learning new skills, pushing back barriers and making
new friends.
Convergence 96: Innovation: the Next Leap is already looking terrific.
This year we will be focusing on the innovative skills needed to create
the future and how to take those skills back to our organizations.
A special feature incorporated into this event is Conference Magic ...
a system developed by Don Foster Gutridge II of Synergy International
that helps attendees identify their conference objectives and turn them
into reality. This system helps attendees transform a 3-day event into
a life-time of results. Facilitated by Don Foster Gutridge, II,
President of Synergy International. (loves to fly airplanes upside down)
