SEA in the News

Three companies from Seattle Executives Association were recognized as fastest growing private companies in Washington tonight by Puget Sound Business Journal.

Those companies are:

MADRONA SOLUTIONS GROUP
PSPINC
LABOR WORKS

Congratulations!

Yesterday's closed meeting at Seattle Execs luncheon was planned as a great fact finding opportunity for the excellent leadership and hard working staff. It seems most people responded to the survey and discussion with what they thought SEA wanted to hear. Officers, board and staff truly do want to make sure all is being done to provide you the best venue for networking and business connections. More or less technology may not be the way to determine the success. All types of communication are important and we are constantly thinking of appropriate ways to ensure members relationship building. Sometimes it is best to step back and observe / listen / and give the people what they ask for.
