NAVIGATING THE DEMOGRAPHIC TIDES

“ARE YOU POWERED UP AND READY to respond to the most important trends? Or are you in a Pause mode – with no connections between trends and demographics of our community and your practices and programming. Are you ready to play – to develop actions that respond to the trends and demographics?” Leslie June, Keynote Speaker Wilson & June Consultants Port Coquitlam, British Columbia
