Shared Wisdom yields powerful results! We want our Partners to keep talking about the UBA Fall Conference, or asking questions if they missed it.
That's why we've listed the key take-aways that should be top-of-mind. You can access the materials from the UBA Fall Conference including presentations, videos, and more!
Please share these take-aways with your staff so that they will also be involved in any discussions. Remember, collaboration is what makes us successful! So, keep talking and we look forward to seeing everyone at the next UBA conference.
