SACEM 2010 Annual Conference •
January 21-24, 2010
Scarritt-Bennett Conference Center • Nashville, Tennessee
Peer groups! We’ve been hearing about them and leading them for the past several years, but what difference do they make? The styles of leadership vary from program to program, is one better than the other? Who participates in these programs and why? How much does all this cost? These and other questions will be addressed. There will be ample time for conversation and creative engagement.
