Two New and Exciting Sessions
at Tenth Annual Meeting in Orlando!
Your Chance To Participate As Members!!

There will be two very different, but equally exciting, sessions during this year’s annual meeting in Orlando, April 24 to April 27. The only similarity is that YOU, our members, will lead them and make them successful!

The first is entitled “ULTIMATE NETWORKING – WHEN YOU WISH UPON A STAR!”. This session will involve a panel discussion and questions/answers from the general membership about topics involving personal/professional growth and development. Too often we attend professional meetings and come back with terrific information on oncology trends, issues, and technology, but we don’t come back with many ideas that we can use for personal development. The Ultimate Networking session is intended to do just that!

Program Committee member Bill Laffey is coordinating this session and will be shortly sending out much more detail via e-mail. The intent is to have a small panel of members discuss topics of general interest in the areas of personal development, such as managing change, becoming a better leader, job change strategies, managing stress or any topic of interest as decided by our membership. Please think about areas you might wish to hear discussed, but also think about leading a discussion in an area in which you have experience! Look for Bill’s e-mail shortly and then PLEASE RESPOND WITH ENTHUSIASM.

The second new session for this meeting will be our Table Topic Lunch. Unlike “Ultimate Networking”, where personal development is the focus, the Table Topic Lunch is your chance to present a professional topic of interest to your peers. It might take the form of a best practice, solution to a problem, general research study, or similar topic. Eight to ten members will be selected for presentations of approximately 10 minutes. Conference attendees will get their lunch and then move throughout the luncheon area to listen to presentations of their choosing. Again, your involvement is key to a successful session.

You will be hearing much more about this session and will receive a solicitation for presenters by mid-February. Be thinking about the great things your program has done and take the opportunity to share your successes with your peers. SO, MARK THE DATES OF APRIL 24 –27 and be thinking about the best way YOU can participate in one (or both) of our exciting new sessions!
