The focus of our existence is education: CEO Luncheons, 13 professional divisional groups (and growing) with quarterly meetings, events, seminars and conferences, are the primary focus for our educational activities. CEO’s, Board Chairs and other Executives are invited to attend regularly scheduled meetings focusing on strategically important issues. Divisional groups composed of department heads and department specialists address managerial trends and concerns and frequently draw upon the expertise of our Associates for presentations.
