MAKING AN IMPACT
We live in an era of astonishing technology, instant information and rampant social networking. Despite the epidemic advances that ushered in a new millennium, cultural critics argue that society has never been more shallow in communication and more superficial in appearance. In fact, Dr. Rigsby argues that for many organizations, appearance- or what he refers to as impression- has become the new corporate wardrobe.
We invite you to rediscover what is really important and meaningful- not only in your professional career but in your personal life as well. Join Dr. Rigsby as he shares the wisdom of past generations- wisdom that will inspire, motivate and empower you to make an impact rather than an impression!
“The Agricultural Speakers Network is an excellent resource for planners. Their staff was instrumental in helping select a speaker for our convention that fit the topic and budget. We recently had Christopher Carter kick-off our annual convention and he knocked it out of the park with his entertaining and informative presentation. I highly recommend both Christopher and the Agricultural Speakers Network.”
