Dave and I attended the Omaha Young Professionals Summit yesterday at the Qwest Center in Omaha - what an inspiring event! It was very well-organized, and the keynote speakers were energetic and motivating.
Our favorite was Blake Mycoskie of TOMS Shoes - if you haven't heard of him, I highly encourage you to check out his company's website. His business model is genius because it incorporates giving back at its core - for every pair of shoes he sells, he gives a pair of shoes to a child in need. Single-handedly, this company has started a grass-roots movement to encourage other for-profit businesses to give back. I love it!
Spending the day with other young professionals at the Omaha YP Summit made me proud to call this city home.
