IFMA Boston’s Thought Leaders host Open Mic Breakfast Session

IFMA Boston’s Thought Leaders had an Open Mic Breakfast Session on October 11th. The wide-ranging conversation touched on insights, experiences, challenges and even those “can you believe that happened” stories. We will be holding another Open Mic Event in the spring as there are still plenty of topics that the group wants to discuss.
