2023 Summit “Quotes”

What You Missed

If you were at the 2023 Global TapRooT® Summit, you went home with great ideas to improve performance at your company. If you missed the 2023 Summit … Well … you really missed out.

By my evaluation and the comments of many participants, this was the best networking EVER. And that’s saying something because the TapRooT® Summit is known for great networking.
This was the first Summit to really feel “post-covid.” It was great to be back to normal.

Better yet, there were “old-timers” and many new people I had never met before. This makes networking really outstanding as you get new ideas and add people to your list of new friends.
You also missed the greatest keynote speakers ever. At least, that’s what many people told me. And I agree. DaRonda Vaught’s talk about her prosecution after a fatal medication error was spellbinding.

You could hear a pin drop. Everyone was on the edge of their seat.
And I also heard that this was the best set of best practice sharing/breakout sessions ever. I certainly enjoyed and learned from the ones I attended.

But what about the quotes from the Summit? Read on…
