Letter from Our President
2014-2015 Officers & Directors
I hope all of you are as excited as I am
about EWI for 2014-2015. We have a
wonderful Board and they are already
hard at work planning the coming year.
For many of our member firms it’s
time to plan next year’s budgets.
Although budgets are not set in stone,
they do provide guidance for the
coming year.
Many member renewals are coming up in December, and
the chapter counts on each one to accomplish its goals for
the year. In addition to seeing your beautiful faces each
month at chapter meetings, we would especially like to see
as many representatives as possible at LCAM in Tulsa next
September 23-26, 2015.
President
Dana Nichols, Cimarex Energy Co.
[email protected], 918-295-1708
Even if you have never attended before, ask your boss to
“Just Say Yes” and invest in your professional development
by allowing you to attend part or all of LCAM.
Membership

There will be several professional speakers, career track
seminars and Leadership Academy modules for your
benefit. There will also be a few hundred networking
opportunities from throughout the country - ladies and
gentlemen willing to share with you their EWI and business
experience. The best part about LCAM 2014-2015 is there
are no airfare or hotel expense burdens. Participation at
LCAM 2015 will be a pure investment in YOU!
