We all are influencers. We are all influenced.

In this world driven by social media, everybody knows what an influencer is. Right? Well, maybe not your grandmother, unless she has her own YouTube channel. Still, the role of these Insta-persuaders is something we all see daily. 

Yet, is it new to society? Throughout history, people have influenced communities to do and think in specific ways. At The Edge, we want to look at the influencer's role in history and life. Our speakers will address how we are influenced and how we influence others, even if we do not wear the influencer title. 

Come along to The Edge to hear about Real Influence. 

Speakers: Sam Chan and Jeri Jones Sparks

Moderator: Hope 103.2's Laura Bennett
