Event planning is one of the most fast-paced and high-pressure professions there is. So what if the most powerful thing you could do… is slow down? ⏳
We’re closing the GO WEST 26 main stage on Tuesday afternoon with Carl Honoré, internationally recognized keynote speaker and leading voice of the Slow Movement.
This refreshing and thought-provoking keynote invites planners to step off the constant treadmill of urgency and explore how slowing down can lead to clearer thinking, better decisions, renewed creativity, and more sustainable success — both professionally and personally.
Designed to leave you grounded, re-energized, and inspired with a new perspective, this is the perfect way to close GO WEST 26.
This session is proudly sponsored by adn speakers.
