KEYNOTE ADDRESS

Mark Hoog, Author: The Growing Field Book Series

Please join us on Monday, October 20 for our conference kick-off and keynote address by Mark Hoog, author of the Growing Field book series.

Mr. Hoog is the founder and Executive Director of the Children's Leadership Institute (CLI), a Colorado non-profit organization that uses literature, public speaking, animated films, community outreach, television programming and public service announcements to share the personal growth and leadership message with children in hopes they fully understand their life is without limit.

Mark travels the country and speaks with children, business organizations and parent groups to deliver his message on Conscious Leadership: a lesson shown to him by Jason Dahl that challenges people from all walks of life to develop their unique gifts and talents and to share these gifts with the world through their own leadership contribution.

The [Growing Field] series, best described as Tony Robbins meets Dr. Seuss, [is] the first children's series designed as a tool to teach young children the life changing ideas and behaviors associated with personal growth, high self-esteem, self-empowerment, leadership and strong character. The series has captured national attention and has been endorsed by former Secretary of Education Richard Riley, top motivation speaker W. Mitchell, top success coach Brian Tracy and by former President Bill Clinton.
