The Hyatt Regency Guam
A couple of months ago, Chamber staff attended Guam's #1 annual leadership event, Live2Lead, and we all had a great day with the excellent speakers, plus activities at the tables. If you missed it, or want to send additional team members, there is one more chance. Live2Lead is slated for Tuesday, February 28, 2023, at Hyatt Regency Guam. The program is headed by John C. Maxwell, and also features three other world-class speakers: You'll see Patrick Lencioni, author of The 5 Dysfunctions of a Team; Dr. Tim Elmore, founder of Growing Leaders; and the supercharged Eric Thomas, a fast-rising name in leadership circles. In addition, the day will feature leadership activities, and a plan for progress in 2023 and beyond. I've attached the event flyer with general pricing. If your team attended in November, whatever price you paid then will be honored now. Visit the website or register today!
