Speaker Discovery Series - Special Pre-Congress Edition

For this special edition of the Speaker Discovery Series (SDS) speakers share their stories on disrupting with love.

Whether you’re passionate about making an impact, you have a personal connection to the cause, you simply adore the work, or your life was blind-sided by romantic love within the profession. These speaker stories are raw, relatable and never-before-heard.

• Dana Bronsteter - Account Coordinator, Stephen Thomas Ltd.
• Jarvis Strong - Consultant and Client Development Manager, THINK Canada
• Katherine Verhagen Rodis - Alumni, Humber College

• Adam Stewart - Consultant, Ketchum Canada Inc. (KCI)

With a special presentation from Congress 2018 Chair, Ann Rosenfield.

It can be hard to find your chance to shine. If every conference wants experience, how do you get experience speaking at conferences? That’s why AFP Toronto began the Speaker Discovery Series (SDS). We want to give first-time speakers an opportunity to receive coaching, mentorship, and constructive feedback.

No slideshows allowed. Just a story, a voice, and a little bravery.
