Saskatchewan's Premier Talent Strategy Symposium 2009
 
On behalf of Junior Achievement of Saskatchewan and presenting sponsors: Saskjobs.ca, PotashCorp, and Cameco, I am excited to announce and open-registrations for Saskatchewan's 2009 Talent Strategy Symposium slated for June 10th, 2009 at the Delta Regina Hotel and Convention Centre. 

This event will feature one of the world's most sought-after speakers on the new economy; Dr. Richard Florida author of the global best-seller The Rise of the Creative Class. His latest book, Who's Your City? also a national and international best seller, was an amazon.com book of the month.

Florida's ideas on the "creative class," form the foundation for his popular presentations throughout the world on global trends, economics, prosperity, competitiveness and growth. Combining in-depth analysis, cutting-edge trends, a fascinating personal story, and just a touch of self-deprecating humor, it's no wonder Florida was recently named one of Esquire Magazine's Best and Brightest, alongside luminaries such as Bill Clinton and Jeffrey Sachs. 

Florida is a regular columnist for The Globe and Mail and has written for The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, The Boston Globe, The Economist, The Harvard Business Review, and The Atlantic Monthly.  He has been featured as an expert on MSNBC, CNN, BBC, NPR, CBS, CBC Radio, CBC's The Hour with George Stroumboulopoulos,and even Comedy Central's immensely popular news-parody show The Colbert Report, with Stephen Colbert.
