Keynote Speaker:

 Tim Miles has used common sense, kindness, and an unquenchable curiosity as tools to help a few hundred businesses to be more successful more quickly. He's founder and head custodian of an odd little communications company, The Imagination Advisory Group which helps owner-operated companies do more with less.

Tim’s consulted businesses in four countries and regularly speaks to companies, conferences and colleges about how to communicate more powerfully, how to escape the pit of mediocrity and how best to let the world see you as you really are … not as you think you should be. He’s the author of the forthcoming Good Company: Making It, Keeping It & Being It and an eBook, Your Customers Like This – a guide to delivering shareworthy customer service. His next book, We All Have Special Needs, will be published in early 2013.
