Over the weekend I just confirmed a new speaking engagement, actually two, at the 36th ANNUAL CONCLAVE LEARNING CONFERENCE in Minneapolis, MN on July 14th. In the morning as part of the Jacobs Media Summer School sessions I will be presenting Marketing Lessons You Can Learn from KISS. Then later in the afternoon I will be part of a Social Media discussion featuring Lori Lewis, Buck Head from CBS/Detroit and moderator is Nathan Richie from NR Creative.
About The Conclave
Born as “The Upper Midwest Communications Conclave”, the organization was founded in 1976 as a regional gathering of communications professionals. It was incorporated as a 501c-3 non-profit entity in 1985. Throughout the years, the Conclave’s yearly Learning Conference has grown to attract many from beyond its original Midwest boundaries, and as such, is now known simply as the Conclave.
The Conclave is governed by a Board of Directors and employs an Executive Director to coordinate the Conclave and exercise the dictates of the Board. The Conclave conducts seminars throughout the year in keeping with its mission statement, and makes available on an annual basis broadcasting school and baccalaureate scholarships.
The value of these scholarships approaches $90,000 this year and includes scholarships to Brown College of Minneapolis, Specs Howard School of Communication Arts in Detroit, Broadcast Center in St. Louis and The McNally-Smith College in St. Paul. The Conclave offers three baccalaureate scholarships annually to students of accredited colleges and universities, this year provided by a generous grant from DMR. The Conclave administers the Rockwell Award, recognizing individuals who have contributed to the rich legacy of the industry in broadcasting, communicating and mentoring. In 2011, Rockwell Awards have been presented to CBS Radio President Dan Mason and legendary programmer, Steve Rivers.
The Conclave has been made unique by design to accommodate, nurture and protect the special needs of the Conclave’s most important communications resource – YOU!
