The Revolution of Less

Starting a company, raising over $100,000 for charity, having a baby, traveling the US as part of a business competition - any of these happening in one year is a lot. So how did Sam Davidson do all of these and still keep life simple? In this informative and energetic talk, Davidson will share the key principles from his newest book, Simplify Your Life: How to de-clutter and de-stress your way to happiness. Using tips from experts, the latest research, and ideas from people around the world, Davidson shows how anyone can live a simpler life in order to discover what's truly important. If you’re looking to better prioritize your life in order to stay balanced and happy, all by finding how to make things simpler and easier to manage, then this talk will offer helpful ideas for doing so.

The largest generation to come along since the Baby Boomers, Generation Y (also known as Millennials) are proving they are a force to be reckoned with. Controlling billions of dollars in spending (and donating) power, how your organization appeals to this generation has long-term implications for your fundraising success - not to mention your volunteer recruitment efforts. But what messages best resonate with this generation? And how can you get your organization in front a generation that seems distracted, entitled, and always connected? In this workshop, Sam Davidson will highlight the defining characteristics of Generation Y, proven methods to reach them, and why if you’re not thinking about how to reach this group of 75 million people, you’re missing out.
