Hospitality Financial and Technology Professionals'
(HFTP) 2007 Annual Convention & Tradeshow has created a new education track
called Leadership Unlimited for the convention which will be held in Jacksonville, Fla. October 17-20 at the Hyatt Regency Jacksonville Riverfront.
"The technical skills of leadership are important, but while intuitive may not always come naturally to professionals," said Frank Wolfe, CAE,
CEO of HFTP. "Leadership Unlimited will provide valuable education for those wishing to improve their leadership skills by focusing on
going a step beyond and taking leadership to the next level."
Whether it is in honing leadership skills, improving within a profession, moving up the ladder or making a career change, this dynamic
program is designed to help attendees achieve their leadership goals. It
will highlight cultivating leadership for those striving to advance their careers and will help them discover how to make powerful presentations, become intuitive when dealing with
colleagues and improve their image.
