Dr. Vonda Wright put on an impressive show for a group of nearly 350 CEOs from across the US. She kept the group engaged, and gave them meaningful, actionable take home value that received universal accolades for its broad applicability to their lives. Beyond that, Vonda is just a wonderful and inspiring person whom I feel lucky to have met.
