Bring your questions. Bring your curiosity. Bring your appetite for knowledge.

The September Ankeny Young Professionals Lunch & Learn welcomes Travis Shelton for a conversation about the pursuit of excellence.

"We live in a culture where the bar gets set for what’s good enough. What if that’s not good enough? What if we deserve better than the bar? What if those we serve deserve better than the bar? During this engaging and interactive talk, we will challenge the idea that good enough is good enough. Whether it's your team, offering, customers, or finances, we will push toward excellence in all that we do. Backed by proven data and behavioral science, explore how to unlock what you never knew possible."

Join us Wednesday, September 9, at On With Life Outpatient, 717 SW Ankeny Road. Networking starts at 11:30 a.m., with the program beginning at noon. Lunch is provided.
