MPI and KCMPI together are "Committed to Educational Leadership." KCMPI gathers monthly for educational programs and networking events that allowmembers to evolve their careers to positions of influence while developing new and powerful partnerships.
Although educational and informative, the programs also offer the perfect opportunity to network, socialize and discuss how other planners and suppliers deal with issues relating to the industry and their careers.
Join us at our next program and remember that “Meetings Drive Change, Join the Revolution!”
