ERA CEO Walter E. Tobin was the guest speaker at the December 2017 Southern California Chapter event.
The Southern California Chapter of the Electronics Representatives Association (ERA) held an educational workshop on Dec. 12, 2017, at the Old Ranch Country Club in Seal Beach, Calif.
ERA CEO Walter E. Tobin was the guest speaker at the event. Tobin covered several topics, including “Goals of ERA in These Times of Change,” “Getting the Most out of the Rep Community,” “How Does a Rep Work with a Distributor,” “The Role of our Industry Associations,” membership updates and more.
“We had a full house,” said Chapter Administrator Bobbi Scobie of O’Donnell South. “Walter is an excellent speaker who is compassionate about his subjects and is in total support of the local chapters and members. The event was a huge success and we have Walter to thank for that. We will be sure to ask him to speak again at future workshops!”
