MPI Dallas/Fort Worth Chapter Past Events
MPI DFW: Emerging Leaders, The Generations Gap Panel & Roundtable
While having varying age differences and levels of experience in an industry can present challenges, communication problems and strategy conflicts, the benefits of such diversity in the industry can outweigh all the differences. As seasoned professionals delay retiring, mid-career professionals climb the senior level ladder and young professionals are entering the workforce, the meeting & event planning industry has become a patchwork of different perspectives and experiences, all of which are valuable to our future.
Let’s address our differences and strengths. Join us at this month’s Emerging Leaders event: The Generations Gap Panel & Roundtable Discussion. No matter if you are seasoned, mid-career or a young professional, everyone is invited to the table to share ideas and suggestions on how we can better leverage our broad range of talents, skills and experiences to help our industry thrive.
Panelists:
- Seasoned Professional – Steven Foster, CMP
- Mid-Level Professional – Robert Sanchez, CMP
- Young Professional – Shakara Shelton
Registration:
Members: $25
Non-Members: $35
Thank you to our Sponsors!
