I am honored to be your 2023 LMA Midwest President. Our Board of Directors and Local Steering Committee leaders have hit the ground running, and we are buzzing with new ideas, resources, programming and opportunities to connect - it's going to be a phenomenal year.
Our 2023 Goals are Meaningful Connection and Actionable Education. We are working hard to provide you with a variety of ways to access this wonderful LMA Midwest community and its abundant benefits - through valuable programming you can take back and apply in your firms and personal touch points that resonate - whether that is a webinar, a regional program, a mentoring coffee (iced for me!) or an in-person neighborhood meet-up. We believe these are the essential ingredients to help a legal marketer grow, flourish and exceed their personal and professional development goals.
Stay tuned, because LMA Midwest has a great deal in store for 2023. Click here to see the latest programming being offered by our Local Steering Committees and the region as a whole. There is always something new here on the LMA website, where you can connect with Communities, join and access Shared Interest Groups (SIGs), catch up on program recordings, LMA Strategies and the LMA Podcast, new complimentary content from PLI, the Body of Knowledge, and more.
New to LMA and looking for ways to get involved? Consider volunteering, especially in your backyard. Our Local Steering Committees are always looking for members to provide a helping hand. Are you the only member in your area for miles? We've got you. Ask me about connecting with other Midwest members like you. Or, if volunteering will not fit into your busy schedule, considering joining us for an upcoming program or social event. Not sure where to start? Please reach out to any of the Midwest Board of Directors - I can vouch for every one of us when I say that we genuinely enjoy connecting members.
I would be thrilled to hear from you and am always up for a chat. You can reach me at jlshankleton@bmdllc.com.
