#WednesdayWisdom courtesy of Dan Black, 2013-14 chair of the NACE Board of Directors and 2021 Kauffman Award winner: "Some of the best advice and guidance I’ve received in my career was from people who had a completely different style, background, and/or approach from my own. That perspective, and the reminder that there are many different ways to see and do things, has been invaluable in my leadership journey."

As 2024 draws to a close, reflecting on the challenges and triumphs, it's clear that it has been a remarkable year for NACE.
