SIM Celebrates the Season – Annual Holiday Reception

Only 8 days left before the SIMCAC Annual Holiday Party! 
Who's ready for the last SIMCAC event of 2019? Join us on December 10th from 6pm - 9pm for a casual reception, full of holiday cheer, delicious food and great company!   For the first time, we are headed to The National Press Club in Washington DC.  Perched atop the National Press Building, within sight of the White House and just down Pennsylvania Avenue from the U.S. Capitol, the National Press Club is the meeting place in Washington for newsmakers and journalists. Through its doors have come presidents, premiers, kings and queens, Cabinet secretaries, senators and House members, movie stars and sports heroes, titans of business and finance – a who’s who of the 20th and the 21st centuries - eager to share their views on current events with the media and the public.

Our annual holiday reception is a perfect opportunity to get to know your fellow SIMCAC members in a social setting, as well as being a great way to recruit eligible prospective members.  As such, we are opening up registration to eligible prospective members and we are asking (and strongly encouraging) all SIMCAC members to invite up to 2 of your eligible directs, peers, or contacts to join you (member guests can attend for free, simply register them as your guests with the “Prospective Member (Member Guest)” ticket type after logging in).

THE NEED FOR STRONG LEADERS HAS NEVER BEEN GREATER

Our world is increasingly complex and filled with relentless change ... fierce competition … unpredictable ambiguity.  Strong leaders are more vital than ever.  Leaders who:

  • Thrive amid volatility and change while deploying highly-developed critical thinking skills.
  • Adeptly leverage their personal leadership strengths.
  • Evoke creativity, innovation and collaboration with teams throughout the enterprise. 
  • Clearly know their values and instinctively do the right thing at all times.
