Christee Gabour Atwood found her way into the world of training the way of lot of folks in our profession did – the scenic route. She started with a background as a radio and television host, moved into positions as a newspaper editor and magazine columnist, then a Universal Studios tour guide, and even tried a stint as a stand up-comic. She was so good at comedy that she swiftly left that profession and found herself in association management, working as an executive of trade and professional associations. The one common thread in what she calls her “career-induced A.D.D.” was the desire to communicate knowledge.
 
And that’s what led Christee to become a learning professional. 

Details to be announced.

What is leadership potential?  How do you identify and develop high-potential leaders?  Barney Olson will discuss these questions and share the results of two pilot studies conducted at The HON Company with vendors that provide assessments of leadership potential.
