NAFDMA Convention speaker post session info on his blog
Get started on the conference NOW!
HUGH MCPHERSON session at this year's convention is entitled, A goal without a plan is a wish.
For those of you that have met Hugh you can attest to the fact that he isn't a boring speaker. He is in fact an amazing communicator.
As communicator's go, he's also quick to pick up on the latest technology. Hugh has created a blog to accompany his session.
"We have invested in two tools in making sure the presentation applies to you. The Session blog is a place for you to interact with the information, questions, and other readers answers. The Handouts & Homework are posted RIGHT NOW so you don't have to wait for the conference

He also recommends downloading the Handout & Homework , completing the homework questions and then post your answers back to the Blog to get the discussion going.
Goal-setting is pivotal to every operation.
"I think this topic was chosen for a session because we all want to get better at bringing our ideas to fruition. With your help, this can be a great opportunity for you to leave armed with useful tools. I promise," shares Hugh. "I will check and respond to comments and postings on the blog site. I will also use your feedback to finalize the presentation itself, thus tailoring it specifically for you. And, I do hereby and solemnly swear to not be boring:-) "
