Next week is the CLOC Global Institute conference and here is a way to Power Up at CLOC with refreshments and educational sessions!

As part of their CLOC participation, IPRO will be sponsoring the Power Up Lounge next Wednesday, May 17 from 8am to 5pm at the Gauguin 2 Room in the Bellagio where you can Power Up at CLOC and “savor a piping hot cup of coffee, refreshing water, and delectable snacks while you power up your devices”.

Not only that, IPRO is hosting several “mini-presentations on a range of soft skills” for you to enjoy while you’re relaxing. And I’m conducting two of them! Here’s the lineup:
