Hello 2014!

Happy New Year!  It is going to be an exciting year for MPI: Tennessee.  We are going to start off the year with fabulous education programs.

The West Region Education Luncheon will be January 14 at the Fogelman Executive Conference Center.  They are presenting a Meeting Planner Forum.  Check what planners are saying about the meeting trends for 2014.

The Central Education Luncheon will be January 29th at the Hutton Hotel in Nashville.  The program entitled "Is There a Difference Between a Great Manager and a Great Leader?" will be presented by Rick Weaver who is a former member of our chapter.  Rick is also our board facilitator for 2013-2014.  You will leave truly inspired and motivated.  There is still time to register for both.

In the spring we have FAM trips in the West Region to the Casinos in Tunica and to Biltmore in the East Region.  Our Connect event will be in April.  There are so many exciting events that you will not want to miss.  Check out our event calendar at www.tnmpi.org for the latest information.  Plan now to attend as many events as possible. Network, build relationships and get the most out of your membership.

Congratulations to Katie Rogers with Emdeon and our Director of Member Care.  She and her husband Mark are expecting a little boy in May.




We hope that you have an incredible 2014!

It is a pleasure to be your President for the 2013-2014 year.
