Here’s what
attendees said about the
2009 Leadership Assembly.
- “As a first-time
attendee at a Leadership Assembly, I was
very impressed with the content and the
opportunity to learn more about PPP and
the link to the individual councils. Each
council takes on a life of its own and
there are so many resources that I was
unfamiliar with and that our council has
not taken advantage of in the recent past.
Hopefully during my tenure, our council
will become stronger for my experiences at
this Leadership Conference.”
-
“There is a wealth of information and resources on the PPP web site that I will begin to utilize immediately. Also, other councils have great ideas to share!”
