For CPAs, attorneys, and other professional advisors, it is essential to have the knowledge, experience, and skills to succeed. However, having active strong networking skills to engage with that network is an equally important component for every CPA and attorney’s career path.
For ‘Next Gen’ professionals and future firm leaders, networking skills will help build your long-term business relationships, grow referral networks and client bases, and further your career goals. This ‘Next Gen’ Conference is open to all young professionals whose firms are members of MGI.
MGI and MI are pleased to host this event the day before the MGI North America Conference commences. It will provide attendees with opportunities to improve their networking skills and expand their networks. Our intention is that this event will be the first of many future similar events. We also hope that it will be a catalyst and open the door to increased engagement and collaboration among the next generation of members within MGI and MI.
