Mountain-Plains Business Education Association

LDI — Now is the Time to Think About Attending July 21, 2011

The Leadership Development Institute is offered as a pre-conference membership benefit at the time of the M-PBEA Conference.  The 2012 Conference will be held in Bismarck, North Dakota on June 17-20.  The LDI is a fantastic way to gain leadership skills, obtain ideas to enhance your organization, and network with other business educators.

Now is the time to — Nominate someone from your state to attend the Leadership Development Institute

Now is the time to — Strengthen your local business organization by having your state leaders attend the LDI

Now is the time to — Learn more about NBEA and M-PBEA

Now is the time to — Learn and grow in leadership and professionalism at the state, regional, and national level

Now is the time to — Promote and support business education through our leadership skills

Each Mountain-Plains state or province is able to send three delegates to LDI.  States/provinces are encouraged to select individuals who serve in officer or board positions in their state associations, a college student majoring in business education, and/or a relatively new teacher.  In addition, these individuals must be members of NBEA/M-PBEA.  However, each state can use its own selection process in choosing the three LDI delegates.

I do hope you take the time to submit names from your state.  The purpose of the LDI is to help each state/province develop their future leaders.  Contact your state president or state membership director for details about the selection process in your state or contact Murleen Bellinger, LDI Director, at mb44829@windstream.net for a nomination form.  Nominate a colleague or yourself to attend the 2012 M-PBEA Leadership Development Institute. The deadline for states to forward applicant names is March 1, 2012.

NOW IS THE TIME . . .
