Our featured speaker is John Taft, CEO of RBC Wealth Management. A noted national speaker and author, Taft makes a compelling argument that Wall Street leaders and institutions experienced a failure to fulfill their stewardship responsibilities by putting their own interests before the interests of the constituencies they serve.<\/p>\n<p>Taft defines stewardship simply as: \u201cchoice for service.\u201d Personal insights and accounts of events from his life, as well as anecdotes from others, help illustrate the concepts of stewardship&#8211;and help bring what it means to be a steward to life in an exciting and intellectually stimulating way.<\/p>\n<p>Light refreshments will be available prior to the event and free pizza\u00a0will be served after the event. The event and\u00a0pizza are free.
