How can you take participants from Bore—to ROARTM—and achieve a positive Return On Attendee Relevance (ROARTM)? Join us to explore—and experience—practical, powerful tools for improving your events.

• How our brains don’t like boring things—and what to do about it.
• How to deliver programming that’s compelling enough to overcome the “second screen.”
• How to maximize your investments in external speakers, and improve the quality of internal speakers’ presentations.
