SAFETY FIRST® Magnetic Blade Guard

TLMI welcomed record attendance at the associa- tion’s Committee Summit that took place in Orlando, Florida, on February 4-5. More than 130 registered at- tendees representing five TLMI committees came to- gether for the event, where delegates mapped out each committee’s respective agenda for the coming year. The TLMI committees represented were Techni- cal, Government & Regulations, Marketing, Environ- mental andWorkforce Development. Among the Summit’s 135 delegates were 10 new as- sociation member companies in addition to 42 first- time attendees. Nearly 100 companies were represented by the overall attending group. A synopsis of each committee’s activities during their time spent together in Orlando included: • TLMI printTHINK : All committees evaluated po- tential topics, resulting in what will be the most dy- namic content TLMI has ever presented at the event. • Government & Regulations Committee : Re- viewed current industry issues, created a process to develop TLMI position statements, reviewed policy backgrounds and drafted four position statements for consideration. Discussed all TLMI’s packaging partnerships and DC-based trade association en- gagement. • Workforce Development Committee : Reviewed “Do it yourself recruiting kits” to be implemented l ater in the f i r s t quar ter. Di scussed middl e school/high school outreach, including a pilot pro- gram at a Chicago high school career day. Dis- cussed and f ine - tuned cur rent ly in-process workforce video. • Marketing Committee : Thorough discussion around TLMI brand initiative and the overhaul of TLMI’s Product and Services Guide. Developed framework to assist TLMI member companies in cre- ating omni-channel marketing strategies. • Technical Committee : Largest committee spent the entire two days successfully creating the blue- print for TLMI’s signature printTHINK Summit. Con- tent will fall into eight separate areas of concentration. For the first time ever the committee developed more content than they have the ability to share given the time limitations of the event. • Environmental Committee : Created a new sus- tainability goal and objectives that focus on holistic sustainability vs. landfill avoidance to be reviewed and approved by the TLMI Board in March. Broke into task forces centered on matrix and liner recy- cling: reviewed collective data, developed solution partners and identified beta test sites.
