MSAE is pleased to offer an exclusive networking opportunity for chief association executives in the Detroit and Lansing areas. MSAE’s Chief Executive Circles provide association executives the opportunity to meet with colleagues on a regular basis to:

• network
• brainstorm
• share successes
• discuss challenges
• learn from peers

The purpose is to provide open and honest exchange with provocative questions and discussion in a confidential setting. Bring the issues that you can’t discuss with members, staff, or board members. This is a forum for interaction that will help in your personal and professional growth.

The Detroit area group meets for lunch on the first Friday of each month. The Lansing area group meets for breakfast on the fourth Thursday of each month. Cost is $25 per session.

Contact MSAE for more information or call 517.332.6723.
