Rebecca DavisThis morning I was reading the Family & Friends article by Marlo Thomas in the August-September 2013 issue of “AARP The Magazine” and thought how appropriate for network leaders: The School of Life: When your education ends, the learning really begins.
 
Ms. Thomas talks about how she loved school and considered herself a pretty good student. I bet most of you reading this article feels the same way, that you were pretty good students when you were in elementary school. And as Network Leaders, I bet you are finding that you learn something new almost every day. I know I do, especially from other network leaders.
 
As Ms. Thomas wrote about being excited for the kids across the country who will once again buy new book bags and plan that special outfit for the first day of school, I encourage you as a network leader to seek opportunities to connect and network with your peers and to expand your leadership skills.  As adults, we should ask ourselves each day, what can I learn today, what new lessons and experiences – both good ones and difficult ones, will make me a better network leader tomorrow? The perfect opportunity to expand your leadership skills and network with your peers is two weeks away, the NCHN Leadership Summit!  If you have not registered, please do so today and get your room, as today is the end of the special rate that was negotiated for participants at the Summit.  You will find registration and lodging details, along with the complete agenda in this issue of eNews. 

So, plan your outfit (old ones will do just fine) to wear to the NCHN Leadership Summit and don’t worry about a hat – as we will have the perfect one there for you!  Don’t miss the fun, the learning, and the opportunity to connect with your peers in Austin!
