/ Curtis Haley
Program Manager, TRI Leadership Resources, LLC
He has been a president, he has worked for THE President, and now Curtis Haley speaks to audiences around the country about the leadership lessons he has gained from those experiences and more in his workshops and presentations.
Although Curtis appears to be a typical guy, his life experiences and accomplishments have been anything but commonplace. Curtis was one of just 50 students from the State of Oregon to be awarded a full-ride scholarship to his school, has been elected as the national president of a career and technical student organization, hired as one of the youngest political organizers in the country by a 2008 presidential campaign, and speaks and presents to audiences as large as 15,000 people.
Curtis’ presentations harness the power of two important qualities: ENERGY and EMPATHY. An entertaining, passionate speaker, Curtis focuses his message around themes of honesty, sincerity, and creating more meaningful relationships with the surrounding world. Specializing in topics ranging from economics to Facebook, Curtis’ presentations will make you laugh, make you think and make you think differently about the world around you.

During check-in, students will be provided with sectional selections to ensure all chapters are represented in all sectionals.

Advisers attending FBLA Fall Leadership Labs may attend the BITs and Pieces Updates meeting during this event.

Please see the next page for registration instructions and event details.
