Member Voices: The Value of CSC Training Groups

During this year’s General Membership Meeting, attendees heard directly from members who actively participate in CSC’s Training Groups. Kelly Brookins (SMART), Brett Cline (SOAPP), Dave Goolsby (SECURE), and Katie Rowland (HR Management) each shared their perspective on how these sessions have impacted their teams and businesses. Their experiences brought to life the value of peer learning and collaboration—something we believe is at the heart of what makes CSC training so effective. If you’ve been thinking about joining a group, we’d love to help you get started. Reach out to the CSC team anytime.

Big Ideas from the Brightest Minds

This year’s CSC Annual Convention brought together a dynamic lineup of speakers who inspired, informed, and challenged us to think differently.

Former NASA astronaut and keynote speaker Mike Massimino shared a powerful message on the importance of teamwork, drawing from his extraordinary experiences in space. From repairing the Hubble Telescope to building the International Space Station, Mike showed how collaboration drives success—in space and in business.

Leadership expert Brian Parsley led our second keynote with insights on DISC personality styles and the art of ethical influence. His engaging session gave attendees practical tools for building rapport, negotiating effectively, and leading with intention.

Our breakout sessions featured a wide range of relevant topics, including fire safety, RFID innovation, sales planning, macroeconomic industry trends, AI in the workplace, talent retention, and the future of purchasing. Thanks to all of our expert speakers—including leaders from within the CSC membership—for sharing their knowledge and helping our members stay sharp in a rapidly evolving industry.
