We are pleased to announce that Gary LaBranche, FASAE, CAE, the newly appointed President and CEO of NIRI National, will be hosting a meet and greet for the Philadelphia Chapter on May 11th at 6 p.m. E.T. We will be serving our usual assortment of light refreshments and appetizers from the 24th floor of the recently opened FMC tower, with its breathtaking panoramic views of Center City Philadelphia.

 

Gary has a distinguished career as an Association Executive. Before taking the NIRI CEO position, Gary was CEO at the Association for Corporate Growth. He has previously served as CEO of the Association Forum of Chicagoland and as VP of professional development at ASAE, the Center for Association Leadership. He was named a Fellow of the American Society of Association Executives (ASAE) in 1995, and was the ASAE Key Award winner for 2007, the highest award in the profession. ASSOCIATION TRENDS named him the 2012 Association Executive of the Year. He is also a member of the U.S. Chamber's Association Committee of 100.

Gary will take a few moments to share his thoughts on the opportunities to grow NIRI based on his travel to date, and will also be happy to entertain your questions.
