Powerful Keynote Speakers at the 2014 AFLA Conference

The Automotive Fleet and Leasing Association (AFLA) is excited to announce Scott Burrows, Weldon Long and Vince Poscente as keynote speakers for its upcoming Annual Conference to be held at the M Resort & Spa Casino in Las Vegas from September 7-10. These speakers will focus on different aspects of professional development to complement the industry specific sessions held throughout the conference.

Scott Burrows is an expert on transformational change and uses his inspirational life story to encourage everyone to stand up to their challenges. As a college football player at Florida State University and a top-ranked kick boxing champion, Scott Burrows was on track for stardom until a devastating automobile accident changed his life forever and left him paralyzed from the chest down. During the AFLA conference, Burrows will use his principles of vision, mindset, and grit to display how cutting-edge leadership strategies will benefit your entire company. Scott’s application of these innovative concepts helped him achieve astonishing results and he will use them to inspire you to reach new heights in business and life.

Weldon Long, successful entrepreneur, sales expert, and New York Times best-selling author, has helped hundreds of companies improve their sales results, but it hasn’t always been easy. Long draws on his personal experiences including prison time, drug addiction, and living in a homeless shelter to prove to audiences that anyone can be driven to success. At AFLA, Weldon Long will showcase how innovation can lead to substantial growth. Long is a driven motivator who will use his story of going from a homeless shelter to building an Inc. 5000 company with over 20 million dollars in sales in just 60 months as inspiration. He will teach you how to create a Personal Prosperity Plan, commit to the plan, and take consistent action toward implementing it.

Vince Poscente, CEO of The Goal Acceleration Institute, will focus on professional development by sharing his insights on achieving big goals in less time. His against-all-odds strategy will help your team be more aligned, agile, and efficient. Poscente will look to inspire the audience by combining leadership insights with lessons from his incredible Olympic experience. As a New York Times bestselling author on the topic of reaching GOALS FAST, Vince combines his signature wit and wisdom with a high-energy message.

The AFLA Annual Conference is much than just high profile keynote speakers. If you’re looking to network with leaders in the fleet industry, this is the place for you!
