Can you believe the CD/NLA Virtual is just two weeks away? It’s been too long since the industry has gotten together for some much-needed education, networking, and camaraderie. While this event is a bit different than our usual autumn show—OK, it’s much different—we’re confident that the CD/NLA team has put together an event that will provide valuable takeaway to keep you and your business on track as you look toward 2021 and beyond. Special thanks to the CD/NLA Show Education Committee, co-chaired by Tracy Raimer of Windy City Limousine & Bus and Jason Sharenow of Broadway Elite Worldwide, for their hard work to bring you the best of the CD/NLA Show experience in a format to meet the challenges of the times.
We know there are events that operators look forward to attending each year at our shows. So, with that in mind, we’re thrilled to bring you one of the most popular events to you again. Ladies, mark your calendars—the Women in the Industry returns on Tuesday, November 17, at 5:30 p.m. (all times are ET) with a session entitled Empowering Your Life for What’s Next. Award-winning presenter Mary Crafts—who describes herself as a “bad ass woman with purpose, grace, and grit”—will be joined by moderators Tracy Raimer and Nancy Vargas of DH2 Chauffeured Transportation to address the truth that what worked for you before will no longer serve you in the world ahead. Crafts will share the steps to release the fears that hold you bound while empowering your life to limitless possibilities.
Mary Crafts will speak at the Women in the Industry event

Members from the NLA Women’s Leadership Council will moderate small groups in Zoom to discuss Crafts’ presentation, work/life balance during the pandemic, and more.
