NAIFA Book Club Update: August 9th | "Swim" by Walter Bond

NAIFA held its inaugural book club session on June 28th with great success! We are gearing up for another fantastic session on Friday, July 26th where Trish May, CISR, loyal member since 2013 from Pottstown, PA leads the discussion on "Lead from the Outside" by Stacey Abrams. Each month, members have the opportunity to discuss the book in both a large and small group format and develop the next steps to incorporate some of the lessons into their work or home life.

NAIFA is pleased to have Walter Bond serve as host and author during our August session. Due to Walter's travel schedule for Shark Mindset, we changed the date to August 9th. This is going to be a fantastic opportunity for members to really sink their teeth into his message and learn from the author of "Swim".
