CHICAGO HEIGHTS–(ENEWSPF)–July 9, 2015. Prairie State College (PSC) welcomes community members to explore ways to determine their dreams, define their moments and discover their destiny during its July 30 event, “Get EMPOWERed.” This is a women’s focused educational event offering an engaging keynote presenter, choice of breakout sessions, and a networking opportunity. The event is scheduled from 8 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. in the Conference Center, located on the PSC main campus at 202 S. Halsted St. in Chicago Heights.
Offered in partnership with the Professional Women’s Network (PWN), the event will feature keynote speaker Lee Ann Piano of Fine Tuning for Success, who is a leadership development expert, executive coach and wellness advocate, and has experience facilitating more than 600 seminars, both nationally and internationally.
Additional breakout sessions will feature Kim Olver, a life, relationship and executive coach, author, and speaker; Felicia Houston, a licensed clinical professional counselor with Ingalls Behavioral Health; Karen O’Donnell of Homewood Stories; Dr. Kate Webster a speaker, trainer and coach with Breaking Thru Barriers; Lori Klinka, a speaker, trainer, and presentation skills coach; and Kat Van Dusen, an entrepreneur, leader, coach, mentor and speaker.
Piano is presenting “GO FOR IT,” which will focus on learning to develop a habit of visualizing dreams, setting goals, taking action, and refusing to give up. Participants will identify the importance of creating a clear mental picture of the life they truly want to live and recognize that hoping for success will not make them successful.
During the breakout sessions, Olver will present “The Power of Positive Relationships;” Houston will present “Work and Home Life Harmony;” O’Donnell will present “Follow the Path That is Coming to You;” Webster will present “Mindful Communication™ Beyond the ‘B’ Word in the Workplace;” Klinka will present “SNAPSHOTS: Life One Frame at a Time;” and Van Dusen will present “Redirecting for Renewal.”
