It's 2021. 365 days of new choices. 365 days of new opportunities. How you take advantage of the opportunities is a choice. For me, and I hope for you, 2020 is behind us. There’s no sense in dwelling on the challenges of last year. What makes sense is focusing on the opportunities ahead of us. For CID essential workers, like managers and your invaluable Industry Partners, it’s taking care of your clients, taking care of your company, taking care of your family, and not necessarily in that order.
2020 had its challenges, there's no denying it. But I’m a strong believer that challenges always present an opportunity. An opportunity to exchange views, refine, define or attain a goal. Opportunity means a chance to grow, change, and learn new things and to do things better than before – as individuals and as a team. It could be a career opportunity, or the opportunity to meet with a prospective new client, or to further pursue education. Opportunities are endless. They never stop coming.
We’re in a pandemic. I get it. We’re still sheltering in place in many areas. But that shouldn’t stop you. You know the old saying, “if the door doesn’t open, go through the window?" I use, "If the door doesn’t open, knock it in." Sometimes we need to create our own opportunity.
You are managers and Industry Partners. You are professionals at what you do. We’re here to offer you some of those opportunities. Our upcoming Open House and Law Seminars are being held in our virtual platform, CMWorld. The pandemic closed the door on all of us. CACM kicked the door in and created an engaging and fun environment where you can move around, talk one-on-one with people, meet with the incredible Industry Partners and your colleagues and have engaging and meaningful conversations. The only thing you need to do is see the opportunity and walk through the door that we’ve kicked in for you. Join us, please.
I look forward to “seeing” you very soon!
Tom Freeley, CAMEx, CCAM
CEO & President
