By now, you know that registration has opened for our 92nd Annual Conference and Exposition this June in sunny Orlando, Florida!! Sign up now - early bird registration with discounted rates ends on March 28! For the third consecutive year, we have held the line on price increases and with plenty of CPE, learning and networking, the ROI on this galvanizing event for our profession continues to grow...
Our volunteer program team did a wonderful job in working with staff to produce a great lineup of keynote speakers, concurrent speakers and pre-conference workshops. Current business leaders scheduled to speak include: Cathy Smith - Senior Vice President of Strategy and CFO of WalMart International, James Kroeker - SEC Chief Accountant, Sam Antar - Former Crazy Eddie's CFO, and Mark Funkhouser - Mayor of Kansas City, MO.

Special thanks to volunteers Ashley Gibson, Norm Meonske, Marc Palker, Steve McNally, and Sheridan Stephenson. Former global board Chairs Bud Kulesza and Pam Prinz-Stewart, and Chair Elect Brian McGuire, also contributed by securing major keynote speakers and helping to select fun venues for networking activities. We thank all of these volunteers for their unwavering service and commitment to IMA.
IMA is growing in so many ways. We have a simple attitude when it comes to our recent successes (financial and membership growth, global footprint, etc.) - we can and must do better. The global profession should expect nothing less. That is the approach we have taken in stepping it up for Orlando 2011 - we hope you agree!
Keep well. Hope to see you in sunny Orlando!
