Leadership in Orlando, Florida

What a fantastic week I had in Orlando for Stampin' Up!'s Leadership Conference.  So many, many great things to share and exciting announcements.  This is going to be a fabulous year for sure!! In deciding what to share, I have decided to put off the announcements for a couple days while some of the kinks get worked out and talk about a very special experience.


 I was asked to present in the Social Media class on blogging.  It's one thing to blog - but to talk about it to your peers is another thing.   SCARY!  After months of preparation it was kind of surreal to be actually doing it last week. 

Would you like a little behind the scenes look?


Literally!

  

It's super dark and very professional looking behind the stage.  Those awesome people were busy making preparations and getting ready.  I'm getting my microphone on for the rehearsal. They clip it on the back of your pants, slide it up your shirt and hang it over your ear just in case you really want to know. *Ü*


Getting instructions on where to stand, where to look, how to control the slides and script, and oh, by the way, don't be nervous.  Right!!
Thank goodness for rehearsals!  


Taking a bow - I made it through rehearsal!


Andrea Withers the Demonstrator Training Coordinator we worked with for the Social Media Class.  What a doll - we had SO much fun!


 I will hopefully have a photo of the live presentations soon to show you. 


The Social Media presenters ...
Diane Dimich - Face Book
Catherine Pooler - You Tube
Becky Roberts - Blogging
Andrea Withers - the boss of it all!

What an amazing experience that was.  Thank you Stampin' Up!, that was quite an honor to be asked and trusted to present to your leaders.
