Chief Marketing Officer at MGI Worldwide, Maxine Brock comments:
“With the help of our core group of members we have been conducting regular calls and conversations each month, and more recently we have started meeting in person. Breakfast meetings and group gatherings continue to be held at many of our regional and global conferences. Our first breakfast meeting took place at our North America conference in May in Austin, soon followed by our European conference in Vienna, and then our Global AGM in Vancouver and closing the year with our Africa meeting in Nairobi.
The enthusiasm and willingness from members from all corners of the globe to get involved, put in time and share their knowledge and experiences as part of a supportive peer group has been incredible to witness.”
