Did you ever find yourself sitting on a plane, taking notes at a meeting or participating in a team building exercise and wonder “how did I get here?"  That just happened to me.  As President of the Metro Philadelphia –Legal Marketing Association I was invited to participate in a two-day LMA leadership training program.  A coach named Richard Boyer lead the audience consisting of the LMA International Board, Chapter presidents and Committee chairs in a program titled: Leading from Within.  We focused on building connections through relationships and recognizing preference vs. behavior.  (I was surprised to learn some things about myself and how I can work better with others to recognize and respect their communication preferences.)
 
Sean Mulholland, Shellee Buchanan, Jamie Mulholland and Hallie Garrison , 2007 LMA Summer SocialNow over 20 years old and nearly 20 chapters strong, LMA is growing strong.  Membership is global and there are Strategic Alliances with other professional associations worldwide that continue to feed the potential of LMA.  Service to the membership is of utmost importance.  From QuickStart and webinars to the Senior Marketing Forum and chapter educational programs, there are invaluable opportunities and resources.  This year over 300 submissions were entered for the Your Honor Awards.  Good things are happening and law firms around the world want to showcase just how good it is.  It’s exciting to see how much the industry has grown in the 10 years that I’ve been a part of it. 
 
My mind keeps wandering back to all of the people I met from across the country and the plethora of information I gleaned about the future direction of LMA.  Over 200 volunteer board and committee members generously donate their time and talent to the growth of LMA and our profession.  Tom Brokaw once said “It's easy to make a buck. It's a lot tougher to make a difference.”  LMA is full of talent that is making a difference.  I’m proud to be a part of it.
