Our 2016 Annual Conference is designed to help you learn ways to help yourself and your company be resilient - flexible, changeable, and able to rebound.  Now, more than ever, business is subject to the impact of many outside forces over which we have no control.  How we respond and what we do about it is 100% in our control.  You owe it to yourself to be resilient. Your career is a large part of your life, take charge of what you can. You owe it to your company to help the organization and the people working there to be resilient.

Expand your connections in the networking opportunities, beat the early morning traffic and attend the Early Bird Session, interact with your industry peers during the day, and attend the cocktail party.  We’re going to have fun and learn at the same time!
