2021 BI-MONTHLY MEETING SCHEDULE

Please SAVE THE DATE for the 2021 bi-monthly meetings.  As it currently stands, we will conduct the first  meetings of 2021 virtually.  Our hope is to begin meeting face to face when we have meeting space available again.  This is subject to change based on recommendations from the CDC and State of Florida.  We will keep you posted as we progress throughout the year.  If you have any ideas for speakers for the future, please email Anita Gabbard.  If you are interested in presenting, use the  speaker proposal form to submit your presentation or workshop proposal idea. We look forward to another great year of robust programs that GOOD has always provided.  See you there!

GOOD Cares!

Find a consultant

A searchable External Consultant Directory is now available for the public to view.  Some of our members are consultants who want to share their availability with potential clients  searching for a talented consultant.  Please visit this new page:  Find a Consultant under the Resources navigation menu tab above.  Members who want to be added to this page need to update their profile and privacy settings.  If you need help, email: website@goodnetwork.us.

Special half-year dues are now in effect at a very special discounted rate.  GOOD cares about the local OD community, and we know many professionals are facing economic hardship due to the pandemic. As a result, we are offering deeply discounted rates for new memberships in 2021.  Visit the Membership page to learn more.
