Stephen Lowisz, founder of The Learning Conference, will discuss the motivation myth — the mismatch between how people motivate and how they are motivated. “Educating others is an important part of who I am,” said Lowisz. “When I speak at conferences, my goal is for professionals to gain tangible information they can use. They want the `how to’ steps that they can exercise in their own jobs. So we decided to create an event to give people exactly what they want – and without the distratction of vendors”
