ZhoneTech 2008

Special Celebrity Guest & Motivational Speaker Joe Montana

NFL Hall of Fame, San Francisco 49ers

Monday, May 19

Widely considered the best NFL quarterback of all time, Joe Montana personifies performance excellence and personal integrity, both on and off the field. Yet the word most closely associated with him is not "winner" - it's "leader." Since his retirement a decade ago, he has become a popular motivational speaker sought out by corporations and organizations nationwide.

Now making his message available to a broader audience, Montana's new book, "The Winning Spirit" shows that ultimately performance excellence is fueled by personal integrity. With great stories and practical strategies, Joe gives his readers hard-won advice based on years of success. Amazon claims this timely and timeless message is nothing less than a contemporary motivational classic! Joe will be addressing the ZhoneTech audience before dinner on Tuesday and we'll have a couple hundred of his books on hand as our gift to all ZhoneTech attendees.
