President's Message |
After our holiday break for the month of December, it is good to get back on our FEI meeting schedule. We started the second half of our Chapter year last week with a great meeting at Bridgewood Conference Center. Rebecca Ryan, founder of Next Generation Consulting in Madison, best-selling author, economist, and futurist led a thoughtful presentation and educational session on How to Apply Strategic Foresight. Ms. Ryan’s insights into understanding the next generation and futuristic thinking, was very informative and thought provoking. Over 120 members, Strategic Partners and guests were in attendance for this special event sponsored by BMO Harris, Grant Thornton, Mason Wells and Schenck.

Upcoming Events |
We could really use your help with recruiting. We have had 14 member terminations since July 1, 2016. These are primarily members who have not been able to attend our chapter functions. The best way to recruit new members is through personal contact. The National dues have been $525.00 annually for the Executive Membership Category. It was announced at the Summit in May that the FEI National Board approved reducing these dues to $399.00 from June 1, 2016 through June 30, 2017, for the first year of membership.To read the entire Membership Update click here | Don't forget to mark your calendars for these upcoming events:
