Local speaker and author Jon Gordon spoke to about 40 members of the Jacksonville Womens Lawyers Association (JWLA) Thursday about how to be a positive and energetic leader.
Gordon, who lives in Ponte Vedra with his family, travels all over the U.S. speaking to companies, organizations and schools. He said about 80 percent of his speaking jobs are outside of Northeast Florida, while the other 20 percent are here in the area.
“I try and help leaders be more positive — in all different industries,” said Gordon, “whether it be attorneys or a waste management company or a school.”
JWLA’s annual holiday party is Dec. 4 at Tastings on Prudential Drive from 5:30-7:30 p.m. The party is free for members.
