The Power of You – Bold Leadership in Changing Times
In these rapidly changing times, one truth remains: real change doesn’t start with policy, procedures or even funding. It starts with people – BOLD people.
Award-winning parks and recreation advocate Ian Hill has worked alongside more than 1,700 departments across North America over the past 25 years. From rural townships to major metros, his mission has been clear: to equip everyday leaders to create extraordinary impact. Now in this powerful keynote designed specifically for New Hampshire’s park and recreation professionals, Ian brings a message of empowerment, resilience and bold leadership.
Join us as we welcome Ian Hill back to New Hampshire on his 2025 speaking tour across the country!
