In addition to the anniversary theme, the meeting also embraced the title of a popular song from 1986, the Company’s founding year. “The Future’s So Bright” was taken from the song’s title, “The Future’s So Bright, I Gotta Wear Shades.” The primary anniversary event was Saturday, Feb. 19, a Directors Dinner, honoring directors, both past and present. Forty-four men and women from EIM Member Companies have served since the founding on June 13, 1986. The business sessions were Monday and Tuesday mornings. On Monday, the first David L. Hadler Risk Management Award was presented to Gary Meggs, director, risk management, Southern Company, and EIM management gave, as a panel led by President Scott Goodell, a “state-of-the-company” report. The session ended with a guest speaker. The highlight of the Tuesday session was three breakout sessions, each repeated, on Emerging Issues, Enterprise Risk Management, and Energy Insurance Services. The EIM staff was the primary entertainment for the star-studded Monday night dinner when nine EIMMYs were presented to various EIM Member Companies and risk managers.
