Frequently Asked Questions
Why were the dates of the 2010 Annual Leadership Development Conference changed?
In today’s economic conditions the WFF chose to change the event dates in order to provide a better value to our members and attendees. The total cost of travel (airfare, airport transfer, hotel room rate) to the 2010 event is nearly a 40% savings over the past three annual conferences.

WFF also understands the value of affordable and relevant educational opportunities. This year attendees can expect to experience high impact and high value educational content specifically developed for their career stage needs.
