MCAA Networking Roundtable Now Online

By Tim O’Toole

The Networking Roundtable Discussions you know and love from the MCAA Convention at the World of Concrete/World of Masonry in Las Vegas and MCAA Midyear Meetings are now online.

Networking Roundtable Discussions engage different positions within a masonry company. The groups address and discuss issues of relevance to the duties they perform for the company.

This is a great opportunity to openly discuss topics with other peers from around the country in a non-competitive atmosphere and for your company to walk away with a host of new best practices to implement in your company.

Join the discussion today at www.masoncontractors.org/networking-roundtables.
