NEW ANALYST PANEL NADOA is excited to announce we will be hosting a special panel this year to give our attendees the opportunity to hear from our newer analysts. Our goal for this panel is to learn and understand more about this generation, their preferences, and to bridge any gaps. We will go over how they learned about this profession, their background/education, preferred communication style, expectations for managers, resources they utilize, any suggestions they have for NADOA, and much more. This class will only be offered one time, so make plans to attend!
