“a rising tide raises all ships.”
i HavE BEEN told i aM a coNNEctor. To me, that is a
compliment. My brain is constantly on overdrive, thinking of ways to link
seemingly unrelated people, places and stories. That’s why I love my role at
ISPA. It is all about building relationships and connecting people within the spa
industry to each other and to those outside the industry who deserve to know
more about the incredible work you do.
Since 1991, the ISPA board of directors, the membership and staff have
worked tirelessly to make the ISPA Conference & Expo a hub for building
meaningful relationships in the spa industry. That is why there are now an
unprecedented number of corporate spa director trainings centered around this
event. There’s no better place to learn, network and forge partnerships than at
the ISPA Conference & Expo.
Relationships and friendships are the lifeblood of this organization. The
community we develop at the ISPA Conference & Expo makes the rest of the
year better and more successful for the entire spa industry. Spa directors come
to Conference to learn and grow as leaders, but also support ISPA resource
partners who put their time, money and resources into this organization.
Ou r sponsors and exhibitors choose the ISPA Conference & Expo to get
their brand and innovative products directly in front of spa decision-makers,
but they’re also there to build meaningful and personal connections that can
last a lifetime. We are beyond grateful for their generosity. Please show the love
and support those that support ISPA!
In addition, ISPA is the only place each year that brings all our valuable
industry groups together. From corporate leaders and industry affiliates to
students, emerging entrepreneurs and everyone in between, these groups
come together over one week to strengthen and grow the ISPA family.
We are grateful for the continued commitment to ISPA and the Conference.
Every year I’m in awe of the meaningful connections we all make, and with a
theme like CONNECT, I'm confident this year won’t be any different.
