Tom Newton Tom wrote the book on golf!  Well, actually he wrote "a" book called "Your Pocket Guide to Great Games for Golf."    He brings a unique blend of experience that helps our Golf "Links" program succeed.    During his ten years as Vice President of Sales and Marketing for a national insurance carrier, he conducted a number of golf related events for clients, vendors and employees.  These experiences help Tom understand first hand  the challenge of delivering a successful and inclusive meeting event.    Creating and managing a charity golf tournament for eight years further added to his understanding of the organizational challenges of golf events. The Wall Street Journal recently featured Tom in an article about creating meaningful and fun meetings.   Tom's current work as a Marketing Consultant and Executive Coach add to the background necessary to help clients create unforgettable meeting events.    - Senior Fellow - American Leadership Forum    - BS Business Management, PSU      - CPCU American Insurance Institute    - Board Advisor:               Western Benefits Inc.               Hot Off the Press Inc.               The Haven Project    - Board Director:                Northwest Independent Brand                    Marketing                Willamette Valley Country Club       www.tomnewton.com
