Thinking back to OWS2.0 and all that has changed around us since then, I am grateful for many things – most importantly, for the health and safety of our members. Wherever you are located in the world, the COVID-19 pandemic has hit us all in some way – from very large disruptions to smaller inconveniences in our daily lives.
I feel very fortunate for the time we had together in Florida. It was energizing, inspiring and substantive. The relationships and friendships we made in person in February and other IAOP events over the years fuel us in times of need. They sustain our souls. They give us hope for the future.
Community of every kind is more important than ever and this includes our incredible IAOP network. Let’s show each other how strong our association is and what we can accomplish together! Reach out to a member and see how they are doing. Send an encouraging email. Share a story. Offer help. Learn from each other. For resources on how to stay connected and informed during COVID-19, please visit our website.
I hope you enjoy looking back at the highlights from OWS2.0 in this issue of PULSE and celebrating the great people and moments that make our association and industry so special.
Stay well! Until we can all gather again, I wish you and yours good health and happiness.
