Welcome back NSA! Let’s gear up for the September Kick-Off Meeting. Saturday, September 12th 8am – 4pm

Action Time!

This workshop style meeting is about action. We do plenty of listening, but it’s time to execute. After you leave the meeting, you will have made progress. Discover how to learn from and help individuals in our NSA Northwest Community.

Saturday, September 12th

What is the structure of a strong introduction? Before you step on the stage, you want to have the audience with you. Test your introduction. Bring your introduction and you may be selected to receive feedback. Others may have an opportunity to read the introductions.

Have you considered using an audience response system in your programs for increased interactivity? You can see how it works and how to use it as we engage our crowd.

At the meeting, we will also discuss the following:

  • Learn tips and ideas to apply from the national convention
  • See all the resources offered at both local, national and international?
  • How to sign up for Twitter to follow NSA Northwest
  • How to join the NSA Northwest and National social media groups
  • Discuss where are you in your business? What type of resources do you need?
