The Convention Carries On!

­­Its hard to adequately express my excitement for NAHAD 2021. Going through 2020 without seeing the NAHAD community, and after completely planning the Convention in Atlantis, was… difficult, to say the least. Thank you for your patience, flexibility, and understanding as we’ve worked through decisions NAHAD has never had to make before. This is what makes NAHAD so special: YOU.

I remember planning NAHAD 2020 with Molly Alton Mullins, discussing speakers and content, putting pieces together like a puzzle so NAHAD members got exactly what they needed from their attendance. We were looking so forward to our program, and then completely shattered when we had to cancel the 2020 Convention. Luckily, our incredible speakers and industry experts were able to work with us and agreed to keep the same great program in 2021!

I can’t wait to share this year’s educational program with you: from a much needed, and presumably uplifting, economic report with Alex Chausovsky of ITR Economics, to sharpening your connection skills with Ryan Avery, and understanding and working through generational divides in your workplace with Jeff Havens. A distributor workshop focusing on AI and B2B distribution with industry expert Ian Heller is sure to help our distributors prepare for emerging competitors and technologies. And, our showstopper and keynote presentation with Herm Edwards will enrich the leader you are and help you capitalize on your team.

The content is there; it’s been simmering for over a year, ready for you to dive into it. This, along with just getting everyone together (networking is where the Convention is unmatched) is sure to catapult NAHAD 2021 into the history books as one of the best Conventions ever. We never thought we’d have to go a year without seeing one another, but we got through it and we are ready to Make All The Right Connections once again. See you soon!
