Breakfast Talk with Clifton Taulbert

The Sage Colleges, EducationalVistas, and the Century House will host a breakfast presentation by Clifton Taulbert entitled “Entrepreneur Thinking: Moving to Success” on Wednesday, December 7 at 8 a.m. at the Century House in Latham.

Clifton Taulbert is the author of a Pulitzer Prize nominated book “Last Train North” where Taulbert chronicles his journey from the cotton fields of the Mississippi Delta to Fortune-500 board rooms.

Taulbert’s message presents “front porch wisdom” that he learned from the community members, such as Uncle Cleve, proprietor of the town ice house.

His philosophy has been embraced by K-12 and postsecondary academic leadership programs around the world.

Clifton has presented his ideas in front of the Assembly Hall of the United Nations, the members of the United States SupremeCourt, as lecturer at Harvard University, presenter atbusiness conferences including Bank of America and BMW Auto Group, and as an internationally acclaimed TED talk speaker.If you are a business leader, community leader, or an educational leader, this is a conversation you will not want to miss!
