Community management has evolved from a loose collection of tasks to an essential role guiding the strategies and success of organizations of all sizes. Through an in-depth conversation with our featured speakers we'll explore this hot topic and answer your questions.

We also have a few surprises planned to celebrate our 40th breakfast!

PARKING: There's on-street parking & a parking ramp attached to the Design Guild down the street.
