Alison Levine is no stranger to risk-taking. She has survived sub-zero temperatures, hurricane-force winds, sudden avalanches, and a career on Wall Street - all without the use of supplemental oxygen. Please join us to hear her extraordinary story.

 


Frank AbagnaleFrank Abagnale

8:45 am - 10:00 am

You met him in the major motion picture Catch Me if You Can. This is your chance to see him in person and relive his daring exploits as a teen-age confidence man. Now Mr. Abagnale has plenty to say about fraud, identity theft, forgery, embezzlement, and document security.

Mr. Abagnale will be introduced by Superintendent Harry J. Corbitt, New York State Police.

 


Greg Schwem

Technology Bytes

Thursday
September 25
3:00 pm - 4:00 pm

End the show with a light-hearted look at technology. Greg Schwem will share his hilarious views on technology and today's business environment. He will share his observations on topics such as technical support lines, monotonous business meetings, acronyms, "frequently" asked questions, e-commerce, cell phone addiction and that annoying guy in every office who always sends two word e-mails! By the end of Greg Schwem's show, you'll see how "efficient" tools are actually rendering us inefficient.
