Get the Best Media Results
Presenter:
Bonnie Upright
, APR, President, Upright Public Relations, Orange Park, FL
Shrinking newspapers, reduced ad budgets, and messages being blasted through dozens of mediums makes it that much
more difficult to pitch a story. Creativity is king - and a news release isn't always the best answer. In fact,
writing and distributing news releases with no strategy can be worse than not sending one at all. In this session,
we will discuss how to think strategically, in addition to how to marry traditional and emerging media tactics,
to get the best media results possible.

Temperaments
Presenter:
Dr. Althea Pemsel, Procurement Official, City of West Palm Beach, West Palm Beach, FL
Have you ever wondered why the Accountant has to know every detail before he releases even a penny? Have
you pondered how marketing folks get anything done because it seems they are always socializing or having
fun? Have you looked at some managers and staff members in your organization and thought "Does this guy
have a heart? Have you marveled at the calm and collective approach the software designer has in technology
management? Temperaments are going to explain why we are the way we really are and how vital the individual
styles are in today’s working environment. Once you harness and understand the differences, you will be able

Plan for the Future Today: Utilizing Youth in a Meaningful Way
Presenter:
Meryl Rorer, Volunteer Coordinator, Collier County Parks and Recreation, Naples, FL
Many organizations recruit high school and college students to volunteer at their events but give them little
responsibility and virtually no input into the planning process. Consequently, very few of them engage in the
organization beyond the specific event and even fewer remain involved to further your mission. This session will
introduce ways to utilize this population in a meaningful way and maximize the potential for all players. This can
lead to more success projects and help our future leaders learn skills to advance their personal passions and
possibly partner with your organization for the long haul.

Presenter:
Brian Hill, Executive Director, Atlanta Dogwood Festival, Dunwoody Music Festival, and Owner, Oktober Productions, Atlanta, GA
As contradictory as the saying may seem, we all know that “volunteering is mandatory for a successful event”.

the volunteer programs. Questions such as “Where and how do we attract volunteers”, “We found them, now how do
we best utilize them to get the most out of their time?”. This session will take an interactive approach to
the topics of training, directing, motivating and, at times, controlling your volunteers. It will address
how to reward them and how to keep them coming back. Attendees will have the opportunity to have their specific
