The AICC Emerging Leaders (EL) recently confirmed new networking and training dates for Spring 2021. Some trainings will be held virtually and in-person to accommodate all ELs.
Access to executives in and outside of the corrugated industry, has been high on the priority list for current EL members and is often reported in EL surveys as one of the most valuable parts of the program. To address this desire of ELs, the programs coordinators: Scott Ellis and Virginia Humphrey, along with the EL delegates, have planned a series of virtual C-Suite webinars to be held quarterly. Each of the C-suite webinars will cover a different topic including: Finance, Operations, Sales and Human Resources, and include a time for questions from the ELs.
This series is hosted free of charge for all ELs. Next quarter’s C-suite webinar will focus on sales and marketing and is scheduled for May 20 at 3:00pm EST. With a sales focus in this webinar, the discussion will be centered around recreating a sales strategy when a client base has been significantly disrupted.
In addition to the webinar and networking event, the delegates are excited to host the first in-person EL event this year and look forward to the training that will be offered during the Spring Meeting, to be held in Amelia Island, FL.
This year’s Spring Meeting training will be led by program coordinator, Scott Ellis, in advance of publishing his new book, “Uncluttered Life.” The workshop will provide activities to help ELs identify individual goals and aspirations that are important to them, in order to help them create a three-year plan of professional and personal goals. The workshop will also provide resources to continue the work of reducing the clutter of activities, personal history and distractions from work and home. This training will also be offered virtually for those that are unable to attend the in-person event.
