Plan to arrive promptly at 8am to hear the state of your association by President Courtney Davis Curtis. You will hear about our accomplishments since the Seattle conference and more about our optimistic future. We will also be honoring our latest emeritus inductees and giving a proper URMIA welcome to our scholarship recipients. Our conference chairs will be welcoming you all to the conference and taking the time to thank our sponsors. Then we will turn it over to Sheldon Yellen, CEO of BELFOR, for an inspiring keynote address.
Yellen has developed an influential following of decision-makers who love his unconventional management style. His presentations reflect his leadership and management philosophies through managing the ups and downs of his industry, his personal journey as a leader, and his intense belief in the people who execute his business every day. Above all else, Yellen will encourage everyone to find the inner hero in themselves.
