Awards Address to Target Focus and Originality
How to focus your business vision and foster originality will be the topics of a keynote address at the Small Business Week Awards luncheon in downtown Los Angeles on June 4.
Jodi Walker, president of Success Alliances in Northridge, who has given presentations to small businesses and Fortune 500 companies in the United States, Britain, Australia and Scotland, will be the speaker.
