Leadership/Legislative Conference

The Leadership/Legislative Conference is a major event hosted at the University Club of Chicago, bringing together club management professionals from across the United States. This conference serves as a platform for recognizing excellence in club leadership, particularly through the annual Club Executive of the Year award, which honors outstanding professionals who exemplify exceptional leadership in the field.

Participants will have the opportunity to celebrate the milestones, traditions, and experiences that define club management, especially as CMAA kicks off its Centennial celebrations. This event promises to be both insightful and rewarding for all attendees.

In addition to honoring leadership excellence, the conference will also focus on the evolving role of recreational sports within clubs, emphasizing their importance in wellness, engagement, and long-term member retention. Attendees will benefit from CMAA's Governance & Leadership Symposiums, designed to equip club executives and Board members with the necessary education and resources to enhance their governance practices.

This conference is an invaluable opportunity for networking, learning, and collaborating with fellow club management professionals, ensuring that participants leave with actionable insights to advance their clubs.
