President’s Letter: A Call to Action and Sneak Peek of What’s to Come
EFBC members, as we journey through February, it’s the perfect time to start activating the processes and strategies we set in motion during January’s goal-setting frenzy. Understand that setting ambitious goals is just the first step. Execution is where the magic happens. I am currently re-reading “Traction” by Gino Wickman. This insightful book provides a roadmap for turning vision into reality through a structured and disciplined approach. As we absorb the wisdom within these pages, we’re positioning ourselves to execute our vision with precision and purpose.
We are thrilled to announce that the rollout of the Hivebrite online community platform for EFBC members this spring. Our Vice President, Darrin Shillair, and the dedicated EFBC staff are working diligently to set up this app-based platform. The Platform will enhance our member experience and facilitate seamless networking, knowledge-sharing, and collaboration.
