It’s a sure sign that summer’s drawing to a close when my calendar starts to fill up with speaking engagements. I’ve got one scheduled each month from September to November, which is often enough that I stay fairly comfortable with it, yet not so often that it infringes on my regular workload.
Here’s what I’ll be up to:

October 5: It’s All About Me Conference
This is a private event for City of Hamilton administrative staff, so I won’t tease you with details, other than to mention that I’ll be presenting on Organizing and Your Personality Type, the subject of my popular e-book, Organizing Your Life, Your Way.
November 3 to 5: Professional Organizers in Canada National Conference
I’ve been invited to speak again at this year’s POC Conference, which will be held in Toronto. This will mark the third time I have spoken at this important event, and I am truly honoured. My topic for this year’s Conference is Blogging: Beyond the Basics, and I look forward to sharing some of my favourite blogging strategies with professional organizers from across Canada and beyond. My session is on Saturday, November 5th at 11:00 am.
Of course, there will be lots of other interesting sessions, including keynote presentations by Erica Diamond on her Top Secrets to Success in Life and Business, and Joe Roberts on From Skid Row to CEO.
