LAS VEGAS — Organizers of the upcoming Agent Summit have announced that attendees will leave with as many as three books focused on management and leadership, sales success and regulatory compliance. The event is scheduled for May 21–24, 2017, at Paris Las Vegas.


Dr. Kerry “The Nation’s Business Psychologist” Johnson will deliver the evening keynote address on Monday, May 22. Free signed copies of one his six bestsellers, “Mastering the Game: The Human Edge in Sales and Marketing,” will be available at the EasyCare/GWC Warranty booth, No. 117.

Former NBA player and nationally renowned motivational speaker Walter Bond will sign and give away copies of “All Buts Stink” during the Dealer Owned Warranty sponsored refreshment break, immediately following the opening keynote address on the morning of Tuesday, March 23. The book details lessons drawn from Bond’s inspirational and hard-fought climb into the professional basketball ranks after going undrafted out of the University of Minnesota.


Attorney and Mosaic Compliance Services cofounder James S. “Jim” Ganther will sign copies of his recently released book, “Compliance for Green Peas (And Old Dogs Who Think They Know It All).” Ganther is best known for his work on behalf of automotive industry clients, his numerous speaking engagements at industry events, and his articles in the pages of Auto Dealer Today and Agent Entrepreneur, among other publications.


“Our advisory board has built an agenda that happens to include no less than three accomplished authors, each of whom has agreed to host a book signing,” said David Gesualdo, show chair and publisher of Agent Entrepreneur and F&I and Showroom. “Professional development takes many forms, and I look forward to adding these volumes to my own office library.”


More information about Agent Summit 2017, including speakers, sponsors, registration and hotel, is available at the event’s website.
