At today’s NAMA Chapter Leader’s Workshop participants got to hear from several “experienced” (not old) members who have worked in leadership positions. Greg Ehm, Two Rivers Marketing, for example spoke on leadership succession.

The theme of the workshop was “The Secret Formula of a Successful NAMA Leader” and everyone got a signed copy of Roy Williams book, “The Secret Formulas of the Wizard of Ads.”

Besides Greg, another NAMA leader on the agenda was Frank Timberlake. You know shy Frank. He toughed through it with wit and wisdom. Frank talked about membership and said that programming is all important to the chapter. One of the things he said that I liked was how important a good meal can and should be to a good NAMA program. We’re all in the business of food and fiber after all.

I think there were over 40 people in the session which is very good turn out.
