On behalf of ASSP, I want to thank you for being our closing speaker for our virtual annual conference. Your interactive session engaged members and provided a call to action. The compelling link to personal commitments and action truly resonated with our members and attendees. At a time when so many areas of our life have shifted to a new and evolving normal, I believe you anchored your action in the values you are promoting, commitment and upholding it matters. This was evident in your willingness to shift delivery to accommodate the needs of our attendees. We greatly appreciate the contribution you made to Safety 2020 Virtual and the extra effort you showed to engaging with members directly and in our after-hour closing informal celebration. We always look for speakers that put our attendees first and you did. We wish you much continued success with your organization and offer high compliments and praise to other organizations considering engaging you to inspire and mobilize action.
