ManageCasa on the General Session Stage
On Friday, October 16 ManageCasa’s video will be featured as part of Option 4: General Session, “Who Owns the Future of Community Management? A CEO Conversation on Industry Evolution.” The session brings together industry CEOs to discuss how the role of community association leadership is changing, and where technology, service models, and management priorities are headed next.
What the CEO-MC Retreat Offers
CAI designs the CEO-MC Retreat specifically for CEOs and senior executives, rather than as a general-audience conference. Attendees can earn continuing education credit toward a credential or recertification, network directly with peers and business partner sponsors introducing new technology and resources, and sit in on sessions covering emerging trends and best practices across the industry. More than 50 sponsors are on-site this year, giving attendees a concentrated look at the vendors and platforms shaping the industry. Past retreats have featured keynote speakers addressing topics ranging from organizational leadership to crisis response, reflecting the range of issues facing executives who run community association management companies.
