Announcing a new way to develop and improve yourself in 2009, without having to leave your home or office. Webinars 2009 - An effective and low-cost way to supplement your professional and personal development. I know that many of you love to keep abreast of the latest tips and information to help you be more successful, whether in your professional or personal lives. Unfortunately, at times, you're too busy and rushed to attend a seminar or workshop in person.  Maybe an hour at your office or kitchen table is all you have time for that day. Well, if you can relate, I have a solution.  I am excited to have teamed with two colleagues to provide a variety of topics that will positively impact your life and that you can easily access from your home, office or even on the road - via the internet and telephone. 

These colleagues are Robyn Rickenbach, president of Springboard International (www.springboardintl.com), based in the northern Virginia and Washington, D.C. area, and Mike Goldman, president of Performance Breakthrough (www.performance-breakthrough.com) who is based in northern New Jersey.

 Starting this month, we will offer 1-hour seminars ("webinars") on a variety of topics that are relevant to what's going on every day in your personal and professional life.

 Please join Mike, Robyn and me as we facilitate these inexpensive, interactive and fun webinars that can help you continue to reach more of your potential.  Following is some information on January's webinar as well as the schedule for future ones.
