\u201cAnna was magnificent. A great presenter who really knows her stuff, but she was somehow more amazing during the Q&A session. She took \u2013 and actually answered \u2013 many more questions from the audience than we anticipated, and she was very kind to stay on stage well past the 40-minute mark. She may have been the highlight of our Annual meeting. You guys are very lucky to have her.” – Association<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
