As the snow melts away, the cold air grows warmer, and the trees and flowers slowly begin to bloom, we are reminded of the growth that comes with the new season. For several of you, last week marked a once-a-year opportunity to connect with your friends and colleagues, to learn from industry leaders and legal marketing experts at the 25th Annual Legal Marketing Association Conference in Orlando, Florida. This year, the Capital Chapter held their 4th annual scholarship contest and were able to send two of our members to Orlando - Kiara Hughes and Anne Nicole. In this issue, they share their experiences at the conference.
For those of you who were unable to make it to Orlando, please join the Baltimore City Group for their Annual Conference Recap later this month. Attendees will recap the programs and sessions they attended as well as share with you the key takeaways from their experience at the conference.
Leadership is a key component to any organization's development and success. Join us for an interactive discussion at this month's program as Mark Beese addresses how to be a better leader and affect change within your firm or organization.
The Communications Committee is hard at work on giving our Facebook page a "face lift". For those of you who are not familiar with this resource, please click here. We encourage you to check back often as we upgrade our page and add new features. Also, if you have any comments or suggestions, please contact either myself or Amy Knapp.
There are several opportunities for individual professional and personal growth at the Chapter and International level. We hope you find the one that best suits your needs and use this year to turn your goals into action!
