With the early bird registration deadline quickly approaching, here are
TEN REASONS why nonprofit leaders should not miss this Southwest
Regional Leadership Forum!  

 

#10: Connect and learn from more than 40 seasoned professionals who know
what it takes to succeed in the nonprofit sector. These amazing
presenters and panelists will not only represent different areas of
expertise, but they will each give you practical strategies to
implement.  

 

#9: Hear from two of the top keynote speakers in the nonprofit world who
have traveled around the country and who work with nonprofits of all
shapes and sizes to help them tell their stories more effectively. You
do not want to miss Andy Goodman and Allison Fine! 

 

#8: Attend seven out of 42 breakout sessions that will provide valuable
skills from some top professionals. Basic to advanced topics include
board governance, fundraising, financial sustainability, leadership, and
much more. 

 

#7: Participate in a structured networking luncheon to really connect
with your peers who are doing the same type of work as you. 

 

#6: Eat, drink and be merry because the Embassy Suites Hotel and
Conference Center in Norman really knows how to put on a party - three
meals, morning and afternoon snack breaks, and a reception with live
entertainment! 

 

#5: Network, connect, and build positive relationships with hundreds of
nonprofit peers from Oklahoma and surrounding states.  

 

#4: Learn how to tweet, create FaceBook groups and use the newest
technology in a hands-on learning lab side-by-side with some of the best
and brightest college students studying nonprofits. You can also access
the online databases available through The Foundation Center with
professionals to guide you through the process. 

 

#3: Participate in a nonprofit leadership conference that is not only
low cost, but high value.  Most registration fees for a conference of
this scope would probably cost between $400 and $1,000. Your cost
through September 1 is $199. Bring a board member and they only pay
$150.      

 

#2: Every nonprofit leader that attends the conference will leave
inspired, motivated, empowered, encouraged, and prepared to make an
impact in their community and reach their fullest potential as a leader!

 

And the Number 1 Reason:  In case the first nine reasons aren't enough,
we'll throw in some free massages on-site and Eskimo Joe's t-shirts. And
drumming - did we mention you can actually play drums and release your
stress!!!  

 

Now that you've heard why it's essential and beneficial to attend the
5th Southwest Regional Leadership Forum, visit our conference website

scholarships and discounts.
