This is a proud day for MDRT… and for all of our members around the world. Today marks the beginning of the Boomertirement™ Industry Summit in New York City. Approximately 200 leaders of our industry – media, sister associations and financial services corporations – are meeting at MDRT’s invitation with top scholars, economists, authors and thought-leaders to discuss solutions to the pending retirement crisis facing the Baby Boomer generation.
Many organizations have chimed into the chorus of concern regarding the 78 million Boomers who are beginning to reach retirement age. But while many organizations and the media only talk about the problem, YOUR organization is taking action to develop solutions.
MDRT has taken a big step forward in the industry today, through the leadership of your Executive Committee, the guidance of a handpicked task force of members, the hard work of MDRT staff and most importantly the support of all members worldwide.
In coming weeks, you’ll begin to see the fruits of the Boomertirement Summit. Through media coverage, a special issue of Round the Table, and other client communication materials we are creating, you’ll be able to share solutions with your clients, and anyone in your community who is planning for retirement and concerned about their future. You’ll be able to extend the global leadership role of your MDRT organization into a personal leadership role in your community.
I’d welcome your feedback as this program unfolds.
Today is a proud day for MDRT.
