Facilisgroup Focuses on Knowledge and Community-building at Annual Partner Summit

St. Louis-based Facilisgroup held its annual Partner Summit in New Orleans during the week of June 22, 2015. The event brought together Facilisgroup distributor and supplier partners for a week of education, brainstorming and networking. The event was attended by nearly 200 partners representing 74 distribution firms and 40 gold supplier members.

“Partnership and community are two of Facilisgroup’s core values, and our annual summit exemplifies these ideals,” said Chuck Fandos, CEO of Facilisgroup. “Our goal for the summit is to inform, inspire and build lasting connections. Event feedback from the 2015 Partner Summit indicates that we readily achieved these objectives. We believe that we all were able to derive both personal and professional growth as a result of the week’s activities.”

Highlights from the event included:

• The Facilisgroup State of the Union that provided partners with a first look at new directions and goals for the next year
• Sized Solutions breakout sessions that enabled like-sized companies to openly discuss key issues and brainstorm solutions
• The Great NOLA Hunt that built and enhanced community relationships by creating competing teams for a photo scavenger hunt around the French Quarter
• Ignite Your Life with motivational guest speaker John O’Leary, who shared his compelling story and insights toward reaching the next level of personal and professional development in one’s life

"We sincerely appreciate every member of our community," added Fandos. "At Facilisgroup, we believe in a balance—that in order to grow professionally, we must also grow personally. We look forward to upcoming events and our continued development both as a community and as individuals."

Future events for Facilisgroup include the 2016 annual Achiever's Bash, as well as educational sessions as part of the 2016 PPAI Show in Las Vegas in Jan. 2016. Additionally, there will be the 2016 Partner Summit and Sales/Supplier Show in Clearwater Beach, Fla., in June 2016.
