Board Development: Bored to Brilliant – Better Meetings
2020-01-29 08:30 - 12:00 (America/New_York) | Valley Venture Mentors
According to a recent Avast survey, the US professional spends an average of 61 hours per month in meetings and considers more than 50% of them to have been a waste of time (that’s 15 wasted days per year.) There are a number of simple and easily implemented tactics your organization can employ so that your board will consider yours among the BEST meetings they participate in.
In this workshop we will examine the conditions that work against effective board meetings. We will provide practical tools that you and your colleagues can put to use immediately. We will help you get you from “having a quorum” to hosting dynamic and effective meetings.
This workshop is designed for organizational senior leadership and those responsible for the coordination of meetings and events
$150 – 1 person $100 – 2 people* With 2 people attending, it breaks down to $50 per person. $75 – 3-5 people* (must include one board member) With 5 people attending, that breaks down to just $15 per person! *Additional individuals must be from the same organization! We recommend executive leadership, development and program staff and board members attend. YES, you read that right. Three to five people from your organization would only cost your agency $75 to attend a half day workshop!!!

Family Outreach of Amherst Turns 30
2020-02-05 17:30 - 19:30 | Eric Carle Museum, 125 W Bay Rd, Amherst, MA, 01002, United States
CHD’s Family Outreach of Amherst (FOA) marks thirty years of service to Amherst’s most vulnerable families with a reception and presentation of the Helen Mitchell Community Service award to Tony Maroulis, Executive Director of External Relations and University Events at UMass Amherst. Catered by award-winning UMass Dining, the reception will be held Wednesday, February 5 from 5:30 – 7:30 at the Eric Carle Museum.
Beginning with just 6 families in 1990, last year FOA helped nearly 600 struggling families deal with such issues as homelessness, domestic violence, physical and mental health, immigration, substance abuse, and trauma. Working with all members of the family, FOA helps them gain access to the services they need, find educational and employment opportunities, and develop the life skills they need to not only to survive, but to thrive. “We are proud to help our clients who are important members of our community gain access to the services they need as they learn to advocate for themselves in order to raise happy, healthy children,” said FOA Director Laura Reichsman.
2020 will feature many events to celebrate this milestone. The kickoff reception will be followed by the Jeanne Juster Literacy Fair in May, the 17th annual “Light Up the Night!” benefit dinner and auction on June 12 and “Warm Up the Night,” a strolling culinary extravaganza on October 14.
The Helen Mitchell Community Service Award is given to an individual or group who best exemplifies a spirit of selfless dedication to helping improve the quality of life for families in the Amherst community. Maroulis is being recognized for the support and leadership he has shown towards FOA and human services, both in his current position at UMass and at his job as Executive Director of the Amherst Area Chamber of Commerce.

BusinessWest’s 12th Annual Difference Makers
2020-09-24 17:00 - 20:30 | The Log Cabin Banquet and Meting House
Thursday, Sept. 24, 2020
We have moved to a virtual event concept. Ticket sales are currently closed.
Celebrating the 2020 Class

Back in late 2008, BusinessWest conceived a new recognition program.
It was called Difference Makers because, well, that’s the best way to describe those who would be honored. No matter what their career or field or passion — and, over the years, they have been myriad — the one common thread would be making a difference in the community.
Our goal was, and remains, to show the many ways in which an individual or group can make a difference, and suffice to say this goal has been met — as you’ll find out, once again, as you read the stories generated by the 12th such class of honorees.
The 12th annual Difference Makers gala will take place on Thursday, March 19 at the Log Cabin in Holyoke. Tickets cost $75. To reserve a spot, e-mail peters@businesswest.com or visit businesswest.com. Difference Makers is sponsored by Burkhart Pizzanelli, Royal, P.C., and TommyCar Auto Group, while the Tom Cosenzi Driving for the Cure Charity Golf Tournament, MHA, and United Way of Pioneer Valley are partners.

BusinessWest's 40 Under Forty
2020-10-07 16:00 - 2020-10-08 19:30 | Mercedes-Benz of Springfield, 295 Burnett Rd,, Chicopee, 01020, United States
2020 40 Under Forty Virtual-Hybrid Celebration
Wed., Oct. 7 & Thurs., Oct. 8, 2020

The regularly scheduled gathering to honor our 40 Under Forty Class of 2020 had to be post-poned because of the pandemic and ongoing bans on large gatherings.
Amid new restrictions imposed by the governor on large gatherings and with a strong desire to keep everyone safe, it was decided that the most prudent course was to instead celebrate our honorees’ accomplishments with a hybrid platform.
The hybrid event will be spread out over two days on Wed., Oct. 7 and Thurs., Oct. 8. Each “mini-event” will allow 10 honorees and one guest to celebrate in person at the Upper Vista of the Log Cabin. The award presentation will take place as it normally would, but with a very small group (under 40 people) in-person. For all paid registered guests, we will provide a unique code to celebrate virtually with a live stream. Guests will view the virtual program on this page.
As mentioned above, because of the size of the class and to adhere to CDC guidelines, we will be splitting up the event over two days, with two sessions on each of those days. To streamline the process, we have split up the sessions in alphabetical order by last name of the honoree. Please refer to the below list to see when your 40 Under Forty honoree will be accepting their award. Paid virtual guest may view any of the live-streamed sessions:

Healthcare Heroes 2020 to Honor the Heroes of COVID-19
Since the phrase COVID-19 came into our lexicon, those working in the broad healthcare field have emerged as the true heroes during a pandemic that has changed every facet of life as we know it. And over the past several months, the world has paid tribute to these heroes, and in all kinds of ways — from applauding in unison from apartment-complex windows to bringing hot meals to hospital and nursing-home workers; from staging parades in front of these institutions to donating much-needed personal protective equipment (PPE).
BusinessWest and its sister publication, the Healthcare News, will pay tribute in their own way, by dedicating our annual Healthcare Heroes program in 2020 to those who are have emerged as true heroes during this crisis. We invite you to nominate one, or several, for what has become a very prestigious honor in Western Mass. — the Healthcare Heroes award.
