WELCOME Greetings Gold Coast members, and welcome to the 2014 Gold Coast Section Leadership Conference! This conference is not only about competing against business leaders such as yourself, but also about networking and meeting like-minded individuals who share your interest for the business world. I challenge each and every one of you to set greater goals and exceed expectations with the help of the friends you will make today. Learn from others, attend informative workshop, and make this day one to remember—because today, you are building your future with friends you will not forget. On behalf of the Gold Coast Section Leadership Team, thank you for continuing Gold Coast’s success in membership growth and project participation. It is through your efforts that Gold Coast has become truly spectacular in Bringing Business and Education Together. I look forward to seeing many familiar faces next month in Ontario to represent Gold Coast. Good luck on your competitions today, and remember to have fun!
Lauren Chin Gold Coast Section President
