Garcia. The event will take place Wednesday, June 9th from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. at Xavier University Cintas Center and is being offered free of charge to NSHMBA members and the general public. Priority seating will be given to NSHMBA members and registered attendees.
Named by Hispanic Magazine as one of the “100 most influential Hispanics in the United States”, Garcia will speak on his experiences as a successful entrepreneur who started his investment firm out of a broom closet where it became, in 2002, one of the fastest growing privately held companies and the fastest growing privately held company in the United States with 60 offices in 7 countries.
Garcia is a graduate of the United States Air Force, a highly decorated military officer, a former White House Fellow, and a Columbia Law School Graduate. He has worked for four U.S. Presidents, a Cabinet Secretary, and a four-star general. In addition to these accomplishments, he is a best-selling author and was ranked #1 business book on amazon.com and #6 on the Wall Street Journal bestseller list.

“Plenty of motivational speakers get you revved up and energized about possibilities and opportunities,” Cincinnati Chapter of NSHMBA president emeritus Gema Bahns said. “Charles Garcia is a different breed of speaker. He inspires, yes, but he also provides do-it-how strategies for dreaming big, setting goals and creating concrete action steps to achieve them.”
The NSHMBA Professional Development Event with Charles P. Garcia will be held Wednesday, June 9th from 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm. at Xavier University Cintas Center. Light refreshments will be served. The event is free and reservations can be made online at http://sites.google.com/site/nshmbacincinnati/
