Hello Friends,“Summertime, Summertime, Sum-Sum-Summertime” … Don’t you just love summer? I can see that ABWA is a lot like summer. Hot programs, hot technology and thousands of women who really know how to turn up the heat! Speaking of heat, the new Women’s Instructional Network is smokin’ the competition and as always, every association wants what we have. We are hot on the path and as usual, blazing the trail for the future. It is great to be envied isn’t it? My friends, 2009 is flying by and one thing is for certain, ABWA is in the fast lane! What an exciting time to be your National President! What an exciting time to be in ABWA! ABWA and the Women’s Instructional Network are setting the pace for a bright and successful 60 more years! Your 2008-2009 National Board of Directors has done a terrific job this year. ABWA has turned the corner of technology and side-by-side with the Kansas City Staff; we have become one awesome National Team. Together we are working to ensure that you are educated and informed of the changes in our association and the how’s and whys. The year has been a tremendous learning experience for all of us. Best Practices and WIN continue to be ‘hot topics’ that every member wants to know more about. I always look forward to turning another corner, because I know that as long as we are together – I will enjoy the view. The National Women’s Leadership Conference in Kansas City is just around the corner as well. I will be beating the heat with more than a thousand of my closest friends in Kansas City in September. Remember, August 6th is the end of early registration and you can register on line. You won’t want to miss this spectacular, limited seating 60th Anniversary Celebration of the American Business Women’s Association. Bring your red dress, your camera and your ‘No-Doze’! I’m going to Kansas City, Kansas City here I come ……. See ya there!
