Reputation Strategist, Upticomm Marketing Company,said that,“The ideabehind TheRoleModelSeries™ Conferenceis driven by the
need to create access for teenagers to learn directly from role models in the
society.Research has shown that the
increasing rise in vices can be traced to people who finished from public
schools largely due to lack of support and guidance from authority figures who could
guide and inspire themto make the right choice in their formative years. This
is a cause that Upticomm wants to champion and we encourage other well-meaning
individuals and organisations to support us going forward”.
He stressedthat the road to successful
careerrequire more than the basic education as research has shown that almost
all the successful people have mentors who could be parents, teachers, coaches
or other authority figures who encourage and guide them to make informed
decisions in life.
TheRoleModelSeries™ Conferenceoffer
a wide range of resources for sponsorship, and networking geared to promote
programs and services that support teenagers in public schools to stay engaged
in education, skill development, employment and entrepreneurship which will
