Keynote speakers at this year’s conference include Arianna Huffington and General Stan McChrystal. ASTD will also provide more than 250 educational and networking sessions and a world-class EXPO with the latest products and services from more than 350 top suppliers.

“We are extremely excited about introducing our new mentoring and collaboration platform, MentorString at ASTD this year,” said Jill Dillenburg, Director of Sales for Prositions. “We invite people to stop by our booth #1739 to see a demo and also spin for a chance to win a Les Paul electric guitar.”

Prositions will also have world-renowned leadership expert and speaker John Parker Stewart, author of LEAD NOW!, at their booth to discuss how his leadership development system is being integrated into the MentorString system.

“It is such a privilege for us to be partnering with the Prositions team,” said John Parker Stewart. “It is amazing to see what the marriage of cutting edge technology like MentorString and our latest leadership content from LEAD NOW! can do to revolutionize the leadership development industry.”

MentorString enables organizations to leverage virtual mentoring and secure social collaboration technology.
