    Round Table Discussion

    At last week's luncheon Rob Sproule led members in a round table discussion. The subject of the discussion was The 3 Most Important Things I Got from OXA last year. Members were given time to share and discuss with the others at their table what they felt was most important to them.

    Once the table discussions were done, Rob went around the room and a representative from each table summarized the points that were discussed. There were many great ideas shared such as listening and sharing of ideas, good food, direct business, references contacts and networking connections, increased business profile and business from fellow members. There were also several ideas that came up numerous times including craft talks, onsites, comradery at meetings and leads, referrals and ongoing business. The repetition of these items shows the importance that members feel these play in the OXA meetings and philosophy.
