Author and journalist Antonio Neves welcomed all three classes of CUNA Management School with an opening session on leadership advice Monday morning.

Neves urged attendees to seek “the best moment of their lives” as they “turn up the volume” on their careers.

He says attendees should surround themselves with people who inspire greatness in their lives.

In turn, they can inspire others by taking time to listen and understanding new perspectives.

Neves says CUNA Management School offers students an opportunity to get out of their comfort zones while forming new relationships that can help them shape their futures.
