World-renowned photographer Platon told attendees to take time to think about their legacies while they can still shape them.
Marcus Buckingham
Study your strengths, not weaknesses, to increase your success, says author Marcus Buckingham. "Study success. It’s different.”
David Plouffe

Stephanie Cutter and Nicolle Wallace
Political analysts Stephanie Cutter and Nicolle Wallace emphasize that credit unions should take advantage of the fact that they serve many people in legislators’ districts.
