Andrea Bartlett

In this position, I hope to secure speakers who truly embody this year’s theme of “ID: Inner Drive.” By doing this, I hope that I am able to inspire all delegates to discover what motivates them in order to find their personal niche. As a result I hope that this pushes the boundaries of the business norm, allowing students to blend together sections of the industry that would not normally be paired together. It is my goal to bring speakers who are creative, innovative, and charismatic in order to inspire the delegates of the Ted Rogers Management Conference to find their own Inner Drive.
