ICF Global Conferences are designed to provide exceptional education

client's journey, and as a successful owner of a coaching business,"

Certified Coach Susan Cucuzza. "Conference attendees will experience
rich content for learning and growing, coupled with opportunities for
networking and fun."

project manager Annette Wendin.

Build-Lives, Organizations and Cultures."

reality, impacting organizations and positively influencing the
community and culture to which it belongs," said ICF Global 2014-Latin
America marketing coordinator Lucila Ferraz Marques of the
