10:30 – 12:00pm – Pay Attention! By Steve Osmond of Rhapsody Strategies
We often hear the phrase pay attention, but what if attention works just like money? What if we’re not able to focus because we’re emotionally broke—running on empty with nothing left to give? In this fast-paced, thought-provoking session, we’ll explore what drains our attention currency and what truly restores it. But here’s the real twist: what if the key to regaining focus isn’t just about what you pay attention to, but about who is paying attention to you? This session will challenge the way you think about presence, connection, and the true cost of distraction.
12:00 – 1:00pm – lunch sponsored by Parts Town
1:00 – 2:00 – Empowering the next generation of leaders panel discussion moderated by Jason Spears from SAM Service. Panelists: Ashley Hoff from RSG, Cody Robinson from KEMCO/GARS and Olivia Smith from CFESA.
2:00-2:15 – break with snack sponsored by Kason.
2:15– 3:30pm – Mastering Executive Presence by Steve Osmond of Rhapsody Strategies
Great leaders don’t just manage—they set the tone, shape culture, and inspire confidence. But how do you develop the kind of presence that commands respect and trust? This session explores how to be a non-anxious presence in an anxious world, using Bowen Family Systems Theory (2-4-2 framework) to uncover the core principles of calm, clear, and effective leadership. Designed for C-suite executives and high-impact professionals, this session will equip you with tools to lead with confidence, navigate high-pressure situations, and communicate with clarity and authority.
