The National Travel and Tourism Week is an annual tradition for the U.S. travel community. It’s a time when travel and tourism professionals across the country unite to celebrate the value travel holds for our economy, businesses, communities, and personal well-being. Established in 1983 by a congressional resolution, the National Travel & Tourism Week is an annual tradition that is celebrated during the first full week of May for the U.S. Travel community in acknowledgement of the importance of the tourism industry. This year’s theme is #Travel Forward.
KEYNOTE SPEAKER
Dr. Nathanial Hearne epitomizes what is meant by “up by the bootstraps.” Dr. Hearne grew up in poverty, was plagued with failure, and hated school. With a few encouraging teachers who showed him love and compassion, he turned his life around. As an educator, motivator, mentor, executive, and trainer, he has ultimately led countless individuals to excel far past their expectations and even their dreams. Dr. Hearne believes in helping others achieve their goals, and he has led countless individuals to excel past their expectations and dreams. Dr. Hearne played an important role in the lives of those football players who were featured in the film “Friday Night Lights.” For more information about Dr. Hearne, visit his website at drnatehearne.com.
