Keynote Marcus Buckingham Launches “Find Your Strongest Life”
 Marcus Buckingham, the world’s leading expert in personal strengths, shows women how to create lives of passion, purpose, and performance in Find Your Strongest Life: What the Happiest and Most Successful Women Do Differently. Hailed as a visionary in the corporate world, Buckingham now shares his proven, research-based techniques to help every woman identify her strengths, reignite her zeal and power, and live an invigorating life.
Buckingham recently led a workshop sponsored by Oprah Winfrey for 30 talented—but unfulfilled and unhappy—women. Acting on his advice, they were able to make immediate significant and positive changes in their lives. More than 1.7 million people downloaded the three-hour workshop video, and more than 100,000 unique contributors came online to post messages when his workshop and its results were featured on “The Oprah Winfrey Show.” The phenomenal response to the program demonstrated the critical need to address the role of personal strengths in women’s lives.
