late husband worked for IBM for 43 years. high performing employees were rewarded with trips, etc. of course part of it had to be business for tax reasons. they would hire famous people to speak at these events. i remember one year it was doris kearns goodwin.

(1,735 posts)I planned seminars and conferences. We booked whoever was famous and remotely in line with our topic. No one expected the speaker to help us in our endeavors. She had a stump speech, and made a good buck. Just like most other politicians. Such a straw man for Bernie supporters.
