The SLM will provide you with many tools you need to be a successful leader. Here are a few highlights of what to expect:

The ISA and the Web session, which includes information on using social media, has been expanded to three hours because of its popularity. Presenters Jon DiPietro and Shari Worthington will be back this year with more information to keep you up-to-date on how to use the web and other electronic media. These media can help you keep in contact with your Members, recruit new Members and leaders, and find new ways to grow your ISA Section.

The Section Leaders Roundtable, with Brad Rupert as facilitator, will surely have some lively discussions as participants share their successes and lessons they’ve learned. Programs, presentations, and promotions are just some of the topics to be shared in this pool of knowledge and experience.

Learn about ISA—the Society, the different technical Divisions, the benefits of membership, etc.—and your role and responsibilities as a leader. Presenters Peggie Koon, William Stange, and Joe Provenzano will lead the discussions about some of the key challenges and opportunities you might face as a leader. In addition, they and other presenters will share their personal experiences within the Society.

Come, join your fellow leaders for an enjoyable and interesting Spring Leaders Meeting. A great program has been prepared for you. Bring your questions, share your experiences, and get re-charged for the year. I look forward to seeing you!
