Lessons in Leadership (1997 - 2001)
Wyncom, Inc, was a Lexington, KY based communications company that produced a lecture series called "Lessons in Leadership" featuring best-selling business authors and speakers. In 1998, we took audio visual services in-house and created Rhyno Productions.
Outfitted with three trucks of gear, we took the conferences to all 50 states. It was like concert touring, but they were leadership lectures during weekdays instead of musical acts in the evening. Think of today's TED Talks, but a full day, ticketed seminar with speakers like Stephen Covey, Tom Peters, Ken Blanchard, Robert Cooper, Bob Nelson and others.
Additionally, Rhyno produced teleconferences where several of our speakers shared the stage from an uplink location that was broadcast via satellite internationally. In fact, we produced the very first pay-per-view webcast.
Sadly, the company was adversely affected by September 11th, and within a year, went out of business. However, Rhyno Productions survived and was bought out by an outside client, retaining the equipment and most of the remaining staff.
Half of these photos are scans of film prints and the other half were taken with a Sony Mavica, one of the earliest consumer level digital cameras. Thus, they are low resolution, small pics.
