Leadership:  In NAPO, Your Business, Your Life

(A Members Only Meeting)

The 2017 NAPO-LA Leadership Forum is a special presentation by NAPO Board Member and LA Chapter member, Regina Lark. This is a great opportunity to hear about NAPO from a broader perspective, as our industry is growing and changing rapidly.

As a representative of the NAPO National Board, she will share with us her Top 10 Tips for leveraging your NAPO membership, ideas to maximize your Chapter and Conference experiences, and member opportunities to contribute toward the growth and future of NAPO on both a local and a national level.

Growth – of NAPO, our Chapter, our business, our lives – happens when we shift our mindset and embrace the concepts of “conceive, believe, and achieve,” to become the leaders we were always meant to be.
