Denise Sherman from WSU’s Center for Management Development CMD was the speaker at out October Chapter meeting. She has an interesting background as a businesswoman, but in the late 60’s became involved at WSU with the CMD. She was very well versed in their curriculums for business, including Project Management and Conflict Resolution, and many more certificate programs they had available for Business subjects. They even have a more current program they do with Legos and she had short speakers from three of their programs to tell about them. She led a lively discussion about the work they continue to do, and is a very engaging and interesting speaker.

We appreciate Denise’s time and expertise, and we’re excited about the opportunities CMD offers to help safety and leadership professionals continue growing their skills.
