I started my professional career in Fortune 500 Management and spent almost a decade learning from a couple of the largest companies on the planet.  I started my first business 6 years ago, and a year later I started Club MO (a personal training program / facility) . From there I started speaking and conducting training seminar for corporate leadership.  In the millennial style, I currently operate Club MO, speak, and am pursing my third simultaneous venture as a building contractor (Built Builder “Let me do the heavy lifting.”).  I’ll offer an entertaining yet brief history lesson on Business in America, identify what has changed and how, then how can Businesses and leaders react to this change. 

My new book with the title of this talk was published in Spring 2019 - How to Lead Millennials: Lead in the New Era of Business

Bill Mawyer, Executive Director
Rivanna Water & Sewer Authority

A long range drinking water plan was crafted in 2012 in response to a major drought which gripped the area in 2002. This plan included construction of a new dam for the Ragged Mountain Reservoir, as well as a new pipeline to connect the South Rivanna Reservoir and the Ragged Mountain Reservoir.

Rivanna Water and Sewer Authority (RWSA) was created in 1972 by the City of Charlottesville and Albemarle County to provide wholesale water supply, water treatment, and wastewater interception and treatment for the City and Albemarle County. Our staff is dedicated to providing an adequate water supply for now and in the future while protecting the natural environment. Drinking water is distributed throughout the urban community by ACSA and Charlottesville Public Utilities. We then receive the community’s wastewater, treat it, and safely return it back to the environment in the form of clean water.
