OGR TO HOST YOUNG PROFESSIONALS EVENT IN
NASHVILLE, TN MARCH 10-11

AUSTIN, TX – October 2018 - The International Order of the Golden Rule (OGR), the world’s leading professional association dedicated to serving independent funeral homes, is excited to announce its 4th Annual Young Professionals Event, “Change Starts Here”, will be held in Nashville, TN on March 10-11, 2019. “We are excited to bring together the next generation of the best and brightest in funeral service,” said Jessica A. Smith, CMP, Assistant Executive Director for OGR. “This event will feature peer-led sessions, small group discussions and hands-on presentations.”

Participants will discuss how they can solve common challenges in funeral service, explore ways to improve communications with a multi-generational staff, and discover tools to minimize burnout and stress. Attendees will also have the opportunity to share innovative service ideas and widen the services options they offer to families. The two-day educational experience will also include several opportunities to socialize and explore the sights, sounds, and tastes of Nashville.

“Change Starts Here” is going to be an experience for funeral directors who are in similar places in their careers to take a closer look at the ways each of them is addressing the changing needs of families and examine the swiftly changing needs of the funeral home in the future. “Our goal is to offer a way for the next generation to come together to not only learn, but also share from their own experiences,” said Smith. Registration information can be found at www.ogr.org/young-professionals. Attendees can earn up to 8 CEUs in states where approved.
