| |  | | We've all had to pivot lately - from doing things the 'normal' way, to new ways of interacting and executing. No different, ACT had to pivot from cancelling our planned in-person meeting April 22 to executing on a one-day virtual ACT Meeting. And thanks to staff and ACT members, we were hugely successful!
488 individuals registered for our four sessions, with attendees submitting many questions.
In this special edition of ACT News, we feature in-depth overviews of the sessions held on April 22. On-demand recordings, along with PDF versions of each presentation can be found HERE.
Virtual meeting sessions featured in this issue are:
- Steve Anderson: “Practicing Successful Failure”
- Becky Schroeder/ITC: “Digital Marketing – The Importance of Being Local”
- Ron Berg/ACT: “Vital ACT resources”
And as with past meetings, additional highlights will appear in future issues of ACT News. In our July edition, one article you can look forward to is a deep dive on ‘Cybersecurity from Home’, as presented by Dustin Mooney of Rigid Bits.
BONUS: This edition also includes bonus articles from Chris Boggs and Carey Wallace with information related to ACT Meeting content.

| | Focus is key! From an errors and omissions (E&O) perspective, agents cannot lose focus during this disrupted work setup. Working from home does not change the fact that all procedures and processes that apply in the home office also apply at the "home" office. This article from Big ‘I’s Chris Boggs lays out the key rules to avoid WFH E&O issues. Learn More |
