Mark Johnson, S.E.C., CCIM, explains how to “get the results you are hoping for,” and Bob Steele, S.E.C., shares why “don’t wanters can be the key to more transactions.” The S.E.C. Education Foundation’s 2017 president, Paul M. Winger, S.E.C., reports on the 2017 and 2018 education schedule and encourages everyone to practice using our new Meeting Administration software.
