From the Chair

Notes from Mini-Conferences


Outstanding, Enlightening, Inspiring!

Those are just a few of the comments from attendees at our first two 2013 Southern Region Tour mini-conferences in Orlando and Barbados. I can’t express how grateful I am to the amazing teams at our first two host chapters for presenting truly top-notch programs. From the presenters to the agenda and even the scrumptious food ... these conferences couldn’t have been better. 
 
If you haven’t had an opportunity to take advantage of some of the best professional development and networking you could wish for, there are still two more opportunities to do so.
 
On October 18 it’s Viva Nash Vegas! IABC Nashville is hosting our third conference where we’ll hear from communications leaders in areas ranging from Communicating with the ‘C Suite’ to Brand Therapy.
 
Then our big finale comes on October 25th with IABC Houston presenting a wide-ranging program with exceptional professionals. There will be two keynote speakers plus seven breakout sessions!
Houston's Hot - Come to the Coolest City in America!
 
I sincerely hope you will take advantage of these unique opportunities to hear from the cream of the crop in our profession. 
 
Register Today and I look forward to seeing YOU on The Tour!
 
All the very best,

 
Dianne Chase
Chair, IABC Southern Region

CONFERENCE QUOTES
“ …the conference will enormously enhance IABC's profile among local communication and business professionals. For those of our members who have not had the opportunity to attend IABC conferences in Canada or the US (which covers the majority), it was a "rich" professional development experience.”
 
Richard Thomas
Co-Founder,
IABC Barbados
”I enjoyed the format – it did not require as much time away from the office and it allowed the Florida chapters an opportunity to come together … good idea to stagger these conferences around the region … it was a great day well worth the financial and time investment.“
