President’s Message
by Wendy Lopez, NAWBO D/FW president 2003-2004
What a great program we had at our April Luncheon. Our speaker was Katherine Pang and her topic was Jump Start Your Business Operations for Growth and Success! Katherine presented some real world examples of how we as business owners sometimes find ourselves in business dilemmas. Her talk was both informative and entertaining. I can’t say enough about the excellent job Joan Voeller is doing by producing worthwhile programs for our membership this year. Please thank Joan next time you see her.
