4th Annual Summit for Administrative Professionals

The stage at the 4th Annual Summit for Administrative Professionals

About two weeks ago my colleagues and I attended the 4th Annual Summit" for Administrative Professionals with the theme "Diversify : Achieving Excellence Through Innovation" at the SMX Convention Center, Mall of Asia Complex.  This was a two day event (May 25 and 26, 2011) and it was our first time to attend this summit. I thanked my former boss, Greg for approving this and letting us  attend this event.  We were so excited what to expect in this gathering.

The event started with the welcome remarks from the organizer and the opening prayer which was beautifully sang by a Christian singer.  While singing the lyrics of the song, there was a sand drawing which captured my attention.  It was awesome !

The Sand Drawing... A live performance art and type of animation which is so amazing !

Here I am with my colleagues at SunPower during our break

We were entertained by a dance performance

One of the speaker, Mr. Bjorn Martinoff from Germany who is married to a Filipina.  He is six feet and eight inches tall.  His topic was all about Advanced Critical Thinking Skills.
