Conference Keynotes
& Breakout Sessions
ASK ABOUT OUR ALL-NEW
SESSION: SWOT's the Future of School Meals? Using
"Strengths/Weaknesses/Opportunities/Threats"
Analysis to Move Your Child Nutrition Program Forward!
These sessions are designed to deliver excitement and learning,
insight and fun to your next state association conference or group
meeting.
Depending on your needs and audience, any of these sessions can be
a keynote presentation, especially for a directors' meeting with a specific
focus. But we've noted several motivational and inspiring sessions that are particularly suitable for a 45-90
minute conference keynote for mixed groups of administrators, employees, state office folks, and other
conference attendees.
John can do several sessions in one day -- for
instance, a keynote address and two breakouts -- or sessions spread out over several days. We're
completely flexible concerning session lengths and scheduling, so please let us help you make your next
conference or meeting a rousing success!

description.
