2020 Leadership Training [Virtual]
Join the Federal Bar Association in May for everything you’d come to expect from Leadership Training – but virtual! Attendees will benefit from one-hour long information sessions each day May 11 – 14 at 2pm (ET) focusing on topics like Making an Impact on Capitol Hill, Membership Strategies for Success, Communicating with Members, Diversity & Inclusion, and more!
The roundtable discussions that are a highlight of Leadership Training will transform into a series of Virtual Leadership Spotlights, a forum to share ideas, collaborate, and hear firsthand from those in leadership positions between May 21–June 4 at 4 pm (ET). Two spotlight sessions will be held simultaneously but with separate sessions for Section/Division vs. Chapter attendees to ensure focused information discussed for each group.
Virtual Leadership Spotlights
No Registration Required. Invited attendees will receive a link to the appropriate session prior to each program date.
