Participate in bringing the Congress theme to life with a community of inspired dynamic spa professionals who are passionate about working together to make a difference for our businesses, our clients and the world.
 
COLLABORATION: Sessions designed to engage participants in meaningful dialogue as we work together to explore, name and implement plans for the future of the spa industry.  Develop a network of resources and partners that can help you implement realistic plans for your business. 

CONSCIOUSNESS: The Ecology of Mind Symposium with Keynote speaker Jean Houston kicks off a day of deeper awareness and insight into the causal relationship of every act and deed and how one person can make a difference every day.  Reconnect with nature to replenish and revitalize your mind, body and spirit so you are ready to effectively lead your organization back home.

COMMERCE: The business of greening - branding and marketing strategies for creating consumer demand for green spas, plus tangible tools and case studies that illustrate the link between economy and ecology.

Who Should Attend:  Anyone who cares about the legacy we are leaving for future generations and are interested is starting somewhere to make a difference.
