The keynote speaker today, Andrew Zolli...amazing! If you missed it, you missed a fast paced presenter with a quick, dry wit, and cynicism. He hit all the key trends and messages that have been circulating over the last couple of years and painted them in such a new light that I felt like it was information I was hearing for the very first time...this time, it made sense...for real... The day has been going well, considering our Emerging Leaders Meeting was interrupted by the fun and fantastic false fire alarm. Even with that, a lot of connections were made and hopefully, we'll see a lot of those faces at the reception tonight.

The "Talk Turkey or Tofu" roundtable sessions went very well. We shared resume tips, cover letter tips, interview tips and answered questions. The room was buzzing with conversation and energy. I didn't get a chance to see the other topics, but the room was full and the discussions appeared to be engaging. Looking forward to the reception tonight and getting the most out of my day tomorrow. Unfortunately, my flight is scheduled for 5:45p which means the 2-3:30p session will be my last. I'm already thinking about Seattle and what all that could bring.
