The DC Chapter of the ​National​ ​Association​ ​of​ ​Asian​ ​American​ ​Professionals​​ (NAAAP) would like to invite you to our 2017 Leadership Conference: DISRUPT. Keynote speakers Kimo Kippen, VP of Global Workforce Initiatives at Hilton and Victoria Lai, Founder & CEO of Ice Cream Jubilee.

NAAAP is a non-profit organization that cultivates and empowers Asian & Pacific Islander leaders through professional development, community service, and networking. With this mission in mind, the concept of “disruption” came into being for this year’s conference!

DISRUPT​ ​is​ ​the​ ​theme​ ​of​ ​this​ ​conference​ ​that​ ​is​ ​designed​ ​to​ ​energize,​ ​inform​, ​and​ ​empower Asian​ ​and​ ​Pacific​ ​Islander​ ​professionals.​ ​This ​leadership​ ​conference​ ​is​ ​built​ ​on​ ​the​ ​belief​ ​that​ ​many​ ​of​ ​us​ ​have​ ​defined success​ ​in​ ​a​ ​traditional​ ​and​ ​very​ ​limited​ ​way.​ ​But​ ​all​ ​over​ ​the​ ​globe,​ ​ ​we​ ​are​ ​seeing​ ​disruptive changes​ ​in​ unprecedented​ ​ways.​ ​There​ ​are​ ​change-makers​ ​who​ ​have​ ​taken​ ​on​ ​a​ ​wildly different​ ​path​ ​that​ ​is​ ​exciting,​ ​interesting,​ ​and​ ​ultimately​ ​fulfilling.​ ​Through our educational workshops and keynote speakers, our ​conference​ ​will​ ​give you​ ​a​ ​glimpse​ ​at​ ​the​ ​very​ ​different​ ​paths​ ​they​ ​have​ ​taken​ ​and​ ​show​ ​you​ ​their​ ​blueprint​ ​for redefining​ ​success.
