Event Sponsors

Join us as we reflect on the past year and prepare for the future at the Smithfield-Selma Chamber annual Planning Retreat on Monday, October 20, 2014 from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. The meeting will be held at SYSCO located at 1032 Baugh Road in Selma.

All Chamber members are invited to participate as we set goals for the coming year. The meeting will be facilitated by David Rendall.

Coffee and light refreshments will be provided.

What's in store ...

Get warmed up with special guest Lowray Bartney, Jr., a Raleigh-based comic, who’ll give us a humorous perspective with his short presentation, “Money is No Laughing Matter!” Lowray (pronounced LOW-RAY) Bartney Jr., is a breath of fresh air in the humor industry. His brand of clean comedy is inspiring, relevant, and versatile. An ordained preacher and youth pastor, Bartney has always been touted as the “class clown” but realizes that his gift can be used to motivate and inspire people to desire and live their lives from a perspective of wholeness and optimism despite the highs and lows of reality. No matter the challenge, humor is just a word or mannerism away. Get to know and experience this breath of fresh air! You’ll be glad you did.

About the Facilitator

David Rendall started life as a pigeon-toed baby in Milwaukee. When he was eleven years old, his parents sent him to school with patches in his pants. He decided this was unacceptable, so he began collecting aluminum cans from dumpsters and got a job delivering newspapers at five o’clock every morning. Since then he has been a stock boy, lawn boy, caddie, painter, janitor, tutor, resident assistant, job coach, supervisor, nonprofit manager and senior executive.

He’s hyperactive, loud and rebellious. He’s also too idealistic and bad at managing details. All of these weaknesses have helped him succeed as a speaker, leadership professor, stand-up comedian and endurance athlete.

During the last fifteen years he has spoken to audiences throughout the United States, South America, Africa and Australia. His clients include the United States Air Force and the Australian Government, as well as companies in the Fortune 50, AT&T and State Farm Insurance, Fortune 500, Ralph Lauren, as well as Fortune Global 500, BASF, GlaxoSmithKline, and Tyco International.

Early in his career, he managed nonprofit enterprises that provided employment for people with disabilities. He has more than twenty years of experience leading people and organizations. David has a doctor of management degree in organizational leadership, as well as a graduate degree in psychology.

He is the author of three books:

- The Four Factors of Effective Leadership

- The Freak Factor: Discovering Uniqueness by Flaunting Weakness

- The Freak Factor for Kids
