Meetings
Strategies for Success is the theme for SWO’s 2008-2009 programs. Whatever your level of satisfaction with your current professional life, you can expect only one guarantee: everything changes. But even when change is the only constant, flexibility and preparation can see you through great times, awful times, and the vast plateau of everyday life in between the extremes.
STC-SWO meets every month between September and May. This year’s meetings include events like:
- Face-to-face gatherings featuring speakers on topics ranging from effective networking to independent contracting. The alternating venues for in-person meetings are the West Chester and Dayton branches of Indiana Wesleyan University.
- 20-20 Vision of the Future, a regional conference about the future of techcomm, held at Cedarville University in October.
- A virtual meeting (one of our winter webinars, for weeks when winds are blustery and roads are bad) focusing on the effective use of tools for professional communicators.
