2021 AMA Mid-Year Retreat

Online | Professional Chapter Leaders Only

A Virtual Event Exclusively for AMA Professional Chapter Leaders

The AMA Mid-Year Retreat takes many of your favorite aspects of our past Regional Retreats all in an effort to help you build a strong chapter.

Our Professional Chapter Leaders will come together to sharpen their leadership skills, strengthen their chapter operations, celebrate volunteer contributions and align on delivering our AMA community advantage to members within all our local communities.

The primary focuses for 2021 programming will be succession planning, volunteer recognition and integrating DEI efforts into chapter plans. 

This event is free for all AMA Professional Chapter Leaders.


Equipping Leaders to FLEX

Surviving and thriving through change requires grace, fearless leadership and flexibility. During our time together, you’ll get to collaborate with other Chapter Leaders to share experiences, gain inspiration and celebrate as a community.


Keynote Speaker: Donna Hicks-Mitchell

Vice President of Global Diversity and Inclusion at Citi, Author and Leadership Strategist

In her session “The Art of Remarkable,” Donna will help us learn innovative strategies to unlock the collective power of teams while building an inclusive culture of trust across organizations. She’ll also share how to create authentic engagement to ensure all contributions are platformed and recognized.
